Employee Benefits

The Department of Juvenile Justice provides a large and varied set of health and flexible benefits for eligible employees at competitive premiums.

The DJJ Team Georgia website is especially for employees of the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice and offers news, stories, resources and information with state employees in mind.  It also provides access to several key services.

The State Health Benefit Plan (SHBP) serves as the state’s administrator of health insurance coverage for state employees, teachers, public school employees, retirees, and former employees, and covered dependents.

The DJJ Flexible Benefits Program via GA Breeze administers all employee paid flexible benefits, including: dental, vision, life insurance, short and long term disability, specified illness, long term care, legal services and flexible spending accounts.

In addition to standard benefits such as health, vision, and retirement, DJJ offers a wide array of special benefits unique to the state of Georgia.

DJJ offers generous retirement benefits and savings plans for retirement.

DJJ strives to improve employees' overall health and well-being in all aspects of their lives including through the day to day culture of work at all of our facilities.

Open Enrollment (OE) gives you the opportunity to enroll in coverage or review current Plan Options and make changes to coverage based on your needs. This year’s enrollment is more important than ever, as many employees are re-evaluating their health needs and seeking to protect their financial well-being.
