Carrier forms in Employee Navigator (EN) are among the big items that California brokers provided feedback on and have requested from EN.  We are excited to share that carrier forms are now LIVE in Employee Navigator. Go here to learn more.

As we mentioned in our March update, the full migration tool for Ease to EN is still in development. The current migration tool is available but is limited to select product lines. The next phase of the migration tool is expected to support the majority of groups; it should be available by the end of Q2.  We anticipate most groups will migrate once the updated tool is released. (Read the March Ease Acquisition update here.)

The initial goal date for migration was 12/31/2025; however, it’s likely that this timeline will be adjusted. Additional information will be shared as it is made available; for now, there is no official update on the sunset date for Ease.

EN is advising brokers to expect that new groups will no longer be able to be built using Ease beginning sometime in the 2nd half of 2025. This will occur only after identified parity features are available in EN.

We will keep you updated as additional features and updates continue to be released, so you can review how this may impact your timeline and communication to your groups on expectations for transition.
If you have a new group that you would like to add to EN or a group that is ready to migrate now, please reach out to your Word & Brown sales team to review suggested next steps.
