JANS – The distribution of a major market compensation rate adjustment is part of FMOL Health’s ongoing commitment to meaningfully invest in its team members. In addition, FMOL Health’s Just Wage, the organization’s minimum hire rate, will also be increasing to $15 across all markets.
“Thanks to a strong financial position, we are able to make investments back into our health system and more importantly, directly to the team members responsible for our continued success,” said E.J. Kuiper, FMOL Health president and CEO. “This underscores the promise we have made to ensure FMOL Health is widely recognized as a best place to work and practice medicine.”
The compensation adjustments come after extensive analysis of thousands of roles across the health system. The 2026 annual market analysis was conducted using the most current workforce information. The analysis incorporated both national and regional data sources, and each position was benchmarked against competitive rates from comparable organizations, ensuring a holistic and fair review process.
“We are in the business of caring for people, and that extends to our team members,” said Jennifer Trahan, chief human resources officer, FMOL Health. “This investment honors our ongoing commitment to ensuring we remain a best place to work in all aspects; offering a comprehensive Total Rewards package to our team members that includes competitive wages, along with meaningful benefits and organizational purpose rooted in our strong mission.”
As a Catholic healthcare system committed to fair and just practices, FMOL Health has consistently offered wages well above the federally mandated minimum, affirming a strongly held belief, started by the FMOL Sisters, that every team member deserves a living and just wage.
This latest round of workforce investments comes after the health system announced a 4% across the board pay increase, paid parental leave and other additional benefits enhancements over the course of the past year.
