UMF Employee Membership FAQ
- Fitness & Rec Center program fees – The free unlimited voucher program for UMF Fitness & Rec Center access only and will not qualify employees for various member discounts provided to paying members. Examples include reduced registration fees for some programs such as swim lessons, after school program, and Red Cross courses will be charged at the non-member rate.
- Tax Deductible donation to the Fitness & Rec Center – Due to the fact that UMaine System employees now receive free Fitness Center memberships and that the Fitness Center does not get reimbursed for this lost revenue, some have asked if they can still do payroll deduction and make a donation the Fitness Center. The answer is yes! Payroll deduction forms are available for this purpose at the Fitness Center that recognize the employee’s donation as a gift and therefore tax deductible. You simply enter the amount you wish to deduct each pay period.
- Adding a spouse/partner or dependent(s) who ARE on UMaine System Health Insurance – Employees may add their spouse/partner and any legal dependents aged 0-26 to their membership as long as they are included on the employee’s UMaine System Health Insurance plan.
- Adding a spouse/partner or dependent(s) who are NOT on UMaine System Health Insurance – If an employee has a spouse/partner or dependent(s) that is not on the employee’s insurance plan, they required to purchase their own pass.
- Terminated or retired employees – Terminated or retired employees are not eligible for vouchers.
- Wellness hours – Vouchers cannot be used in conjunction with wellness hours (paid time off for wellness activities per union contract). Vouchers can only be used outside normal work schedule.
- RiseUp Points – Vouchers will not automatically be tied to RiseUp activity points. However, employees can enter activity points themselves on the RiseUp website.
