Total Rewards Statement

Our Employees Are The Most Valuable Part of Our Organization

It takes a special kind of person to work at Carle. Our employees contribute to our success in a way no other healthcare organization can match.

But we know your life isn't just about work. You have additional things going on – family, friends, personal interests, education and more. Carle offers a comprehensive total rewards package that helps you live your best life, grow personally and professionally, and get rewarded for the results you deliver.

Your Total Rewards package is comprised of a lot more than just your paycheck. The six elements of total rewards that collectively define an organization's strategy to attract, motivate, retain and engage employees are:

  • Compensation: Pay provided to our employees for services rendered (i.e., time, effort, skill). 
  • Benefits: Programs an employer uses to supplement the cash compensation employees receive. These health, income protection, savings and retirement programs provide security for employees and their families.
  • Work-Life Effectiveness: A specific set of organizational practices, policies and programs, plus a philosophy that actively supports efforts to help employees achieve success at both work and home.
  • Recognition: Programs that acknowledge employee actions, efforts, behavior or performance and support business strategy by reinforcing behaviors (e.g., extraordinary accomplishments) that contribute to organizational success.
  • Performance Management: The alignment of organizational, team and individual efforts toward the achievement of business goals and organizational success. Performance management includes establishing expectations, skill demonstration, assessment, feedback and continuous improvement.
  • Talent Development: Provides the opportunity and tools for employees to advance their skills and competencies in both their short- and long-term careers.

The programs, benefits and perks (total rewards) you receive as an employee may vary based on your position and your employment status. But when you add it all up, the total package provides the same results: your total rewards support you throughout all stages of your life and career.

Total Rewards Statements are available on through your Lawson Self-Service account.
