- Associate discount program
We think our CEO, Tom Ryan, says it best:
_"At SCI, we believe we are Better Together. When each of us brings our best self to work, we can provide the Service Excellence our families deserve. This is why we provide you and your loved ones with benefits and resources to help you become your best."_
BETTER HEALTH:
Wellbeing is important to us, and to ensure our associates have access to the best care, we offer medical, prescription drug, mental health, dental and vision insurance plans for our associates to select from. Our wellness program offers benefit credits and includes a company contribution toward Health Reimbursement Accounts (HRA). Our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) offers immediate, confidential help to our associates and their dependents as well as eight free counseling sessions per incident.
BETTER WEALTH:
We are committed to providing the means and resources for our associates to manage their current and future financial needs. We offer a 401(k) plan with a competitive company match, financial education tools and flexible spending accounts for healthcare, dependent care and commuter expenses.
BETTER SELF:
We encourage associates to take time off through vacation, holiday, sick time, maternity leave and baby bonding (maternity & paternity) plans. Career development is an important focus, supported by tuition reimbursement, professional training and discounted university rates. Through the Sam Lucas Scholarship Foundation, we provide educational grants to associates, their spouses and children. What is important to our associates outside of work is important to us too. We offer additional benefits including adoption assistance and pet insurance, among many other insurance and benefit options.
BETTER COMMUNITY:
Our Associate Resource Communities (ARCs) are associate-led, self-directed groups of Company colleagues who share similar interests and backgrounds. ARCs offer opportunities to connect with colleagues, promote diversity, share ideas, enhance our business and help improve the communities in which we live and work. As part of our mission to promote excellence in funeral service, our mortuary science scholarship program awards over $96,000 annually to 25 deserving students. (Associates are eligible to participate.) In exchange for a contribution to a charity of their choice, our associates can earn an additional day off per year.
