Health Insurance for Adjunct Faculty Members

Health coverage is available to adjunct faculty members and their families who meet certain conditions. Visit the Employee Benefits page for more information. Scroll down on the page to find some particularly useful dropdown sections:

  • Medical Benefits - general description of the different available plans
  • Adjunct Benefits - outlines how an adjunct faculty member can qualify
  • FAQs - contains most of the questions one might have about health insurance at GCC

In short, you at least need to be teaching 40% of a full-time load (at GCC or a combination of GCC and other colleges) to qualify. You can find the full-time load for your division on the Office Hours webpage. For example, full-time load in the Math Division is 15 units, so you must be teaching at least 40% (so 6 units) per semester to qualify. There are all kinds of details involved, so check out the Benefits page above for more information.

Contact the Benefits Technician, Gevork Msryan at benefits@glendale.edu, for more information.
