Workday Pro Benefits Exam - Topic 5 Question 9 Discussion

All full-time employees are in one benefit group. Employees need more than twenty years of service to enroll in a medical benefit plan available in this benefit group. How will you accomplish this without creating a new benefit group?
A) Create a Benefit Plan Eligibility Rule with the condition years of service greater than 20 years. Assign the medical plan to the full time employee benefit group and enter the new eligibility rule in the Worker Plan Eligibility field on the plan.
B) Create a To-Do step on the business process to inform employees with more than 20 years of service to contact the benefits team to enroll in the plan.
C) Select Requires Provider ID in the benefit plan and give the appropriate ID only to the employees with more than 20 years of service so they can enter it during benefit enrollment.
D) Launch a separate open enrollment for this one plan and notify the employees within the benefit group that they should only participate in this second open enrollment if they have more than 20 years of service.

All full-time employees are in one benefit group. Employees need more than twenty years of service to enroll in a medical benefit plan available in this benefit group. How will you accomplish this without creating a new benefit group?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

The correct answer is A because Workday allows administrators to keep a broad worker population in a single benefit group while restricting access to a specific plan through a Benefit Plan Eligibility Rule. In this case, all full-time employees belong to one benefit group, but only those with more than twenty years of service should be allowed to enroll in the medical plan. The correct design is to assign the plan to the existing benefit group and then attach a worker-based eligibility rule on the plan itself using the Worker Plan Eligibility field.

This approach avoids unnecessary creation of another benefit group and keeps the overall benefits structure simpler and easier to maintain. Option B is incorrect because manual communication and intervention are not proper configuration controls for eligibility. Option C is also incorrect because Provider ID is not intended to manage service-based plan eligibility. Option D is not appropriate because launching a separate enrollment just for one eligibility condition creates administrative complexity and does not solve the configuration requirement cleanly. Plan-level eligibility rules are the standard Workday method for handling this scenario.

Option C sounds a bit off to me. I don't recall using provider IDs for eligibility like this in our studies.

I remember a practice question similar to this, and I think we discussed that option D could complicate things with a separate enrollment period.

I'm not entirely sure, but option B seems like it could work too. It might just create extra steps for employees, though.

I think option A makes the most sense since it directly ties the eligibility rule to the years of service without needing a new group.
