What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I am currently on STD for maturnity leave. I informed my employeer about 8 months prior to my due date. My HR represenitive sat down with me and told me all my forms would be filled out through my OB office and had absolutely no other information for me. I had my daughter 7/24/09 and on 8/2/09 sent email requesting information on adding my daughter to my health insurance plan and again on 8/5/09 because I had not heard back from her. She then responded via email stateing she sent me a text message informing me she mailed out the forms. To my surprise I recieved the mail on 8/6/09 but it was not just information on insurance for my daughter but a bill for me to pay my insurance for Aug. I have already had doctors appointments and so has my daughter. Is it legal for them to tell me this after the fact?? I read our employee hand book benefit and pregnancy section that states absolutly nothing about this. What are my rights or options??
