How This Boss Makes an Impact for Children in Florida
Throughout his time at Jackson, Mr. Migoya has also been an advocate for providing employees the resources they need to do their jobs effectively and maintain as much work-life balance as possible, including implementing flexible work options for qualifying positions and family-friendly policies that allow staff and their loved ones to feel supported. The health system offers medical, dental and vision plans, plus a wellness program.
Jackson’s flexible work option supports each employee's unique personal situation and the needs of their families. They recognize family/social support is essential to every employee, and offer flexible work options that meet the needs of the business and the employee's department.
Jackson is committed to promoting a family-friendly work environment by providing services and programs to help employees achieve a work-life balance. They offer a supportive work climate for nursing mothers who wish to express milk during work hours, and provide a secure, private space in proximity to the lactating employee's work area.
