I’m getting married

Congratulations on your marriage! Or maybe you are officially in a common-law relationship. Either way this is an important milestone.
Please send a copy of your marriage certificate and spouse/partner’s identification documents (i.e. Passport, Birth Certificate, Driver's License, etc.) to your HR Representative/Manager in order for us to update your records.
In order to add your spouse/partner and update your extended health benefits if required, you will need to declare a "life event" using the My Benefits Portal website within 30 days of the life change event.
Sponsored employees who are on a SLB Employment Visa, please contact your Visa Coordinator, or HR Representative/Manager, who will advise on steps to be taken to add your spouse/partner to your visa. Geomobile Employees, please contact your Cartus Consultant and notify them of your Martial Status as well.

  • Decide what changes you want to make to your benefits, as allowed.
  • If you've recently married, compare your medical options with your spouse/partner’s to decide which is best for your family.
  • Make allowable changes to your benefits within 30 days after the marriage. Don't forget to update your dependents and your Life, Accident, Retirement Savings, and Discounted Stock beneficiaries, as applicable! Also be sure to update your Pension record to reflect the change in your marital status.
  • Update your mailing address on PeopleConnect, if needed.
  • Update your marital status on PeopleConnect.
  • Re-assess your financial plan for retirement.
  • Use your EAP benefits for help with the financial, legal and emotional issues related to a change in marital status.

If you are an active employee from Cameron, please log into your account and make changes via My Services.

With flexible benefits, you can change your benefit choices and dependents each autumn during the annual enrollment period. You also can change your choices during the year if you experience a life event, such as marriage, birth or adoption, or if your spouse/partner loses his or her benefits coverage. You will have 30 days after a life event to go online to register the life event and re-enroll through the My Benefits Portal website. Otherwise, you can change your benefits and update your dependents only during the annual enrollment period.
