Open enrollment allows employees to do which?

• A. Change payroll provider
• B. Enroll in or modify benefits
• C. Open enrollment
• D. File tax returns

Answer: (B)

Open enrollment is the annual window when employees review and adjust their benefits for the upcoming year. The main action during this period is enrolling in benefits or making changes to existing coverage—adding dependents, selecting a plan, or updating beneficiaries—so that the new elections take effect in the next plan year. It isn’t about changing a payroll provider or filing tax returns, which are unrelated tasks handled outside of benefits enrollment. Since the purpose of open enrollment is to enroll in or modify benefits, that option best fits what this period is for.
