Employer charging me more for health insurance.

[missingyou]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL

It recently came to my attention that i am the only part-time employee to pay $15 more every pay period for Health insurance. Our HR director is no longer at the company, every year i asked him why and he said it was because i was part-time. but employees who work less hours than me are paying the same as everyone else. Is this Legal???

Yes, it is legal. It is not even uncommon.

Many companies do not provide benefits to part time employees at all. There is nothing whatsoever illegal about having different premium payment rates for part time employees.

I'm sorry, I read your post wrong.

Even if other part time employees are paying less than you, it is still legal unless you are being singled out BECAUSE OF your race, religion, national origin, or other characteristic protected by state, Federal or local law.
