What is Work-Life?

The faculty and staff here at KU Medical Center continually strive to help KUMC maintain its reputation as a regional leader and centre of excellence. The Work-Life program is that special 'something more' that allows the university administration the opportunity to say "Thank you!" to the employees for your dedication and all you do for KUMC.

'Something More' is an important concept to all of us here at KU Medical Center, which is precisely why the Work-Life program was created. We believe that balance between life at work, and life at home, is essential in order to renew and refresh our minds and bodies, and lead healthier lifestyles. Be it through the use of our discount program, attending events with your family and friends, being recognized for your years of service, or simply being able to enjoy a treat and conversation with your co-workers, we hope that you'll take advantage of the 'Something More' that makes working at KU Medical Center something special!

Recognition

KU Medical Center prides itself on the longevity of it’s employees, which is why we celebrate the 5 year milestones of service with our staff. Our quarterly recognition events bring together our 5, 10 and 15-year employees with those celebrating as much as 30, 35, and 40-years of service! Whether you’re in the single digits, or receiving your 40-year pin from the governor, the time you’ve spent here at KUMC is equally important to all of us!

Events

Our goal is to offer KUMC's employees and their families the opportunity to attend a wide variety of events throughout the year. Helping you stretch your entertainment dollars, you will enjoy the additional benefit of reduced cost seating/admission as a result of group prices. Whether you are most interested in sporting events or the ballet, KUMC's Work-Life events program has an outing for you! Throughout the year during designated events, when you purchase tickets, you will be "treated" to dinner and prizes at no additional cost.

Appreciation

Having fun is not only important outside of work, but at work as well, which is why we’ve taken the concept of our events program and established employee appreciation events to thank you for the hard work you do here at KUMC throughout the year. Be it ice cream on a hot day, a return to ’Spring Break’, or a celebration of the harvest in the Fall, we believe that it’s important we all take the occasional moment at work to relax, have a little fun and share in the appreciation of the community we’ve created here at KU Medical Center.

Discounts

KU Medical Center wants to make certain its employees get the most out of their hard earned money, which is why the discount program was established. From cell phone carriers to parking at the airport, movie theatre discounts at the popular Legends facility and reduced memberships to Sam’s Club, we understand how important it is to stretch those extra dollars for you and your family. If you have questions regarding our discount program, what is available and how to go about obtaining some spectacular savings, please do not hesitate to ask!
