The Human Resources Department assists faculty and staff in understanding their benefit programs.  We work closely with the Department of Civil Service, Division of Employee Benefits, SUNY System Administration, and the various carriers to ensure that the programs work smoothly and employees receive their maximum entitlement. The links on this page include information on available health and retirement plans as well as additional benefits for SUNY employees.
