- Click on the Company Tab at the top of the page
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and select Configure COBRA
- Set your COBRA Administrator as COBRA Complete (our designated COBRA vendor) or Self-administer (you or your broker will manage COBRA outside of our system)
- Set your COBRA Classification as State or Federal. Learn more
- Click Save
Please note that Zenefits system will not automatically determine or update the COBRA classification for your company. If you would like to change your COBRA classification or the administrator, please reach out to Zenefits Support through the Help link or app on your dashboard.
