At NC State, we care about the important things, including your health and well-being. We offer a variety of benefits to help you care for every aspect of your life.
As you move through life, NC State provides different plans to meet your and your family’s needs. We offer comprehensive health, dental and vision insurance, plus disability and cancer plans. Our leave plans give you the flexibility and work-life balance you need and deserve. You can plan for your future security now with our two retirement options. We’re here to help you navigate changes, big and small, with your family, career or health.
Your health matters. Under the State Health Plan, employees can choose in-network and out-of-network providers and access preventive health care. Employees can also enroll in dental, vision, cancer and accident plans.
Discover your options
It’s never too early to start planning for retirement. We offer mandatory and voluntary retirement plans to help you reach your goals. When the time comes, we’re here to help you take the next step and retire with confidence.
Plan for your future
Life happens. NC State offers many types of paid time off to help employees rest, take vacation, maintain a healthy work-life balance and care for their family and community.
Find time for you
If you’re physically or mentally unable to work, you can receive short-term and long-term benefits through a free, state-sponsored disability plan. We also offer two supplemental, long-term disability plans.
