Benefits

Starbucks prides itself on our partners. We offer eligible partners working full-time or part-time comprehensive benefits, including health coverage (medical, dental and vision), life insurance and disability coverage (for eligible positions). Along with health coverage, your benefits at Starbucks include tuition reimbursement, employee assistance, adoption assistance and more.

INITIAL BENEFITS ELIGIBILITY

Retail salaried and non-retail partners become eligible for benefits the first day of the month following 90 days of employment.

Retail hourly partners become eligible for benefits after being paid at least 160 hours over a two-consecutive-month period. Starbucks begins monitoring your paid hours the first day of the month following your hire date (or the first of the month if you are hired on the first day of the month) and will continue until you become eligible. Once you are paid 160 hours over a two-consecutive-month period, you will be eligible the first day of the month following that calculation.

ONGOING BENEFITS ELIGIBILITY

Benefits eligibility audits are conducted four times per year in January, April, July, and October to determine whether you have been paid the hours needed to maintain eligibility. Retail hourly partners must be paid a minimum of 240 hours (an average of 20 hours per week) during each calendar quarter.

ENROLLMENT

Once you become eligible for benefits, a notice is emailed to you at the email address you provided when you were hired. Then you have 31 days to read through the benefits information and enroll online at mysbuxben.ca. Partners may cover themselves and their eligible dependents including children and their spouse or common-law partner.

EXTENDED HEALTH COVERAGE

Our flexible extended health plan offers three levels of coverage and includes a host of medical services not included in your provincial medical plan, i.e. hospitalization, out-ofCanada emergency medical, prescription drugs, paramedical treatment, etc. Coverage for alternative care treatments such as naturopathic, acupuncture, massage therapy, osteopathic and chiropractic care are included.
