The SEBB Program provides basic life insurance and basic accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance at no cost to school employees who are eligible for the employer contribution toward SEBB benefits. If eligible, you will automatically be enrolled in basic life and basic AD&D insurance, even if you waive medical coverage. You can also enroll in supplemental life insurance and supplemental AD&D insurance for yourself and your eligible dependents.
Supplemental life insurance is not available to employees whose eligibility was locally negotiated under WAC 182-30-130.
