Under Virginia law, a group life insurance plan must insure all eligible employees if the employer pays the entire premium. This is a requirement to ensure fairness and equal coverage for all employees, as employer-paid premiums typically result in mandatory participation. If the employee contributes to the premium, participation may be optional. The other options do not trigger the requirement to insure all eligible employees.
