My health insurance was terminated without any notice. I am still an employee, but currently have no coverage. Is this illegal?

Unless you belong to a union which has a contract with the company,most benefits are at the discretion of the company. If employees were promised health insurance in the company employees handbook,there may be an implied contract to provide it. I would start with your supervisor and/or human resources department to find out if they will be paying the premium.If they cannot do that,I would look for work elsewhere because your paycheck may start bouncing. You might also want to file a complaint with the NYS department of labor.
