Question
I live in Washington state, however work for a Texas company. There are only two full time employees, myself and my director. I have worked for the company for 5 years and they only offer insurance to my highly paid director, not to me. Is this legal?
Answer
It is legal to offer insurance to only certain employees; only management and not rank-and-file; only full time and not part time; only office and not shop; etc. However, once the classes of employee who are eligible have been established, all employees within that class must have insurance offered.
Thus, if they have established that all full time employees are eligible, it is not legal to fail to offer insurance to you. However, if they have established that only directors and up are offered insurance, then unless you are a director, it IS legal to fail to offer you insurance.
You would have to determine what criteria they are using to establish insurance eligibilty, for us to give you a definite answer. However, the law does not say that if one employee gets insurance, all must, if that is your question.
