After three months of service, employees may attend undergraduate classes at Rider without payment of tuition. After six months of service, their dependents may attend undergraduate classes at Rider without payment of tuition through age 25. Employees and dependents may attend graduate courses at Rider exempt from tuition cost.

You are covered in the event you become disabled or die due to a work related illness or injury. In the case of disability, you will receive medical coverage and wages for time lost from work. Payment amounts are determined under guidelines set forth by the New Jersey Compensation, Rating and Inspection Bureau as established by New Jersey State statutes. Rider pays the full cost of this benefit.

State of New Jersey provides up to six weeks of benefit payment to care for a newborn or sick family member. The State requires that this program be financed by employee contributions.

Short-term disability is effective upon date of hire and provides weekly benefits of two-thirds of salary payable for up to 26 weeks for an accident or illness that is not job related. The maximum weekly benefit is set by the State of New Jersey each year. You and Rider share in the cost of this benefit.

If approved by the vendor, benefits of 66-2/3% of monthly salary up to $3,000 per month are payable after six months of disability based on a schedule and your age when you become disabled. Premiums are paid by the University and coverage is effective after one year of employment or first of the month after date of hire if the employee had coverage with a previous employer within the three months prior to hire.

  • Disability Plan Details (PDF)

Rider sponsors a defined-contribution retirement plan with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association (TIAA) as the record keeper. All full time employees are eligible to participate on the date of hire. Eligible employees must contribute a minimum of 5% in order to participate, and the University provides a 5.0% contribution for each participant. Employee contributions are fully vested immediately and employer contributions are fully vested after completing one year of service. The contributions may be directed to investment options offered by TIAA and other approved vendors by the University. Supplemental Retirement Annuities, which have certain flexible provisions, are also available. In the event you become totally disabled and are enrolled in the plan, the University will continue a 10% contribution to your annuity contracts.
