What You Need to Know for 2027
Benefits You Can Count On
Choosing your benefits is a personal decision. The coverage that works best for you depends on your health, your family and what you expect in the year ahead.
Each year, we review our benefit programs to balance the coverage you need with the rising cost of healthcare. For 2027, you’ll see changes in premiums and plan design, new benefits, and tools to help you better understand your options.
Annual Enrollment is your chance to review your benefits and make changes for the coming year. We encourage you to actively participate in 2027 Annual Enrollment. Take time to evaluate your options, so you can make the right decisions for yourself and your family for the coming year.

What’s New for 2027
Action Required
If you do not actively enroll or make changes to your coverage during the Annual Enrollment period—between October 19 and November 6—most of your 2026 benefit elections will roll over to 2027 at the same coverage level. If you do not want to change plans or coverage levels, or add or remove dependents, no action is required. However, there are a few exceptions:
Health Savings Account (HSA): If you contribute to an HSA, your 2026 HSA contribution election will not carry over to 2027. You must actively elect to contribute to an HSA during Annual Enrollment if you want your deductions to start during the first pay period in 2027. You also can elect to start contributing or change your contributions at any time during the year.
Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs): If you contribute to a Health Care or Dependent Care FSA, your 2026 FSA elections will not carry over to 2027. You must actively elect to contribute to the FSAs each year and can only do so during Annual Enrollment.
Short-Term Disability Insurance (STD): Regardless of whether you are enrolled in 2026, you will automatically be enrolled in the STD Buy-Up Plan in 2027, and premiums will be deducted from your pay on a pre-tax basis. If you do not want to keep this coverage, you must opt out during Annual Enrollment. You will not be able to make changes during the year.
Long-Term Disability Insurance (LTD): Regardless of whether you are enrolled in 2026, you will automatically be enrolled in the LTD Plan in 2027, and premiums will be deducted from your pay on an after-tax basis. If you do not want to keep this coverage, you can opt out during Annual Enrollment or at any time during the year. However, if you decline LTD coverage and later want to enroll, coverage will be subject to pre-existing condition limitations. Please note that in the unfortunate event you experience a qualifying disability that extends beyond the STD plan limit (i.e., 13 weeks), you will have no income from L3Harris if you are not enrolled in the LTD Plan.
How to Enroll
Beginning October 19, once you’ve reviewed your options and are ready to make your elections, visit the enrollment site. If you’re not on the L3Harris network, go to benefits.l3harris.com.
Follow the prompts to enter your election for each benefit plan. Be sure to include each dependent you wish to cover under each plan. Your elections will save as you go through the enrollment process. You will not be required to start over if you begin your enrollment but come back later.
Review your beneficiary information to ensure it is still up to date.
Finalize your enrollment and print or save a copy of your elections.
Enrolled in an HDHP medical plan? Watch three educational videos on the enrollment site by November 30, 2026 to earn the 2027 L3Harris quarterly contributions to your HSA. If you do not watch the videos by November 30, 2026, you will not be eligible for the company HSA funding in 2027.
After Enrollment
Look for your 2027 Annual Enrollment Confirmation Statement to arrive by email link on November 10 after enrollment ends on November 6. Review your confirmation statement carefully, ensuring the plans you selected are correct, and all dependents have been added to the appropriate coverages. If anything is inaccurate, contact the Enrollment Center immediately.
