    I would say it isn’t illegal. They could use the excuse that your manager gets it because she is in a managerial position and you are not. Manager’s perks.

    How infuriating.

    The employer can have approved plans in such a way that only select employees are covered.

    No, it isn’t.

    Benefits are a part of your pay package. You are only paid what you can convince your employer that you are worth. If you think that you deserve a raise in the form of health insurance, go negotiate for it. You need to bring something to the table to back you up though. What are you doing for your employer that makes you worth an enormous raise like that?

    Whatever you do, don’t try negotiation tactics like whining, saying it isn’t fair, saying you need the health insurance, or saying that you deserve it. This isn’t about you. It’s about your value to your employer.

    No it isn’t illegal. If you felt that you were being discriminated against based on your race or religion you might have a case. Higher ranking people within a business having more perks/benefits is pretty normal thouhg.

    Benefits are required to be administered evenly to all employees within the same class. The employer has the right to define the class. As an example, it could be all full-time employees, with Full-time being those who work greater than 32 hours per week. It could also be a certain class of employees, like managers.

    Whatever the employer defines the eligibility to be, it must be fairly administered across all members of that class. If not, they could be subject to fines from the Department of Labor.

    Maybe. If they have a policy of giving insurance to people who have been here five years or more its okay. But if they just offer it to one person because they like her, it would be illegal.
