Total Rewards Philosophy
The Total Rewards Philosophy, driven by our mission and Vision 2029, aims to ensure that UAMS is a desirable place to work, learn, and grow both professionally and personally. Our employees are the backbone of our organization and we are committed to providing them a fair, market competitive, and internally equitable Total Rewards package that attracts, motivates, and retains a an engaged workforce. While base pay is our primary compensation vehicle, we also provide rich benefits, which include health, retirement, wellness, paid time off, short- and long-term disability, tuition discounts/education benefits, and a homeownership & promotion program.
Our Total Rewards program takes into account each employee’s performance, competencies, qualifications, skill set, and experience while staying competitive against our talent competitors such as research hospitals, academic medical centers, and various local private and public employers. We are committed to honest and transparent communication of the Total Rewards program and its administration, according to principles of fiscal responsibility and compliance with all applicable laws. Our Chancellor, Senior Leadership, and Human Resources Team are proud stewards of these principles.
