Is there a specific minimum number of hours that employees have to work to be eligible for health insurance coverage?
If your company is required to offer health insurance
coverage under ACA regulations, any employee that works a minimum of 30 hours
per week or 130 hours per month is considered full-time and should be offered
health insurance.
However, companies are free to extend coverage to employees
who work less than 30 hours per week or 130 per month, at their own discretion.

can we offer any legal advice on such issues. We suggest speaking with your HR
team and legal counsel before making this decision.
