| Sarasota County government encourages
employee wellness and a healthy work-life balance. We offer our
employees the tools to be proactive. In 2011, our efforts to seek out
the best medical care benefits combined with increased employee
participation in preventative care resulted in reduced monthly medical
insurance premiums for everyone. As stewards of taxpayer dollars, we are
dedicated to containing rising healthcare costs.
Our employee benefit package includes
health, dental, prescription drugs, life insurance and disability
coverage. Our employer-paid retirement plan, personal leave, paid
holidays, tuition reimbursement, flexible work schedules, tobacco-free
campus and sick child care are additional perks that make Sarasota
County Government an employer of choice.
This Living Well website offers comprehensive information about medical
insurance and wellness programs for employees, covered family members,
retirees and job seekers. Please click on the menu of subjects below or
