Captaris offers eligible US-based associates a number of excellent benefits. The United States Benefit Program includes the following:

Medical Insurance
Medical benefits are available to new associates on the first day of the month following their date of hire. The medical plan includes vision and prescription coverage. Associates may add eligible dependants, including domestic partners, to the medical plan for an additional cost.

Dental Insurance
Dental benefits, including coverage for orthodontia, are also available to new associates on the first day of the month following their date of hire. As with the medical insurance, associates may add eligible dependants, including domestic partners, to the dental plan for an additional cost.

Flexible Spending Accounts
Our Section 125 Flexible Spending Accounts allow associates to pay for eligible expenses using pre-tax dollars. Funds may be used for dependant care and certain out-of-pocket health care expenses, including a number of over-the-counter medications. Additionally, if the associate chooses to cover dependants on the medical or dental plans, the associate’s share of these premiums may be paid with pre-tax dollars.
