You may enroll for GUL at any time by contacting MetLife at 1-800-523-2894. You will not have to provide evidence of insurability, subject to certain limits, if you enroll within 60 days of your hire or eligibility date.

The GUL program offers the following coverage options.

▪ Term life insurance for you from one to five times your annual compensation (rounded to the next higher $5,000), which includes an accidental death benefit.
