Florida Hospital understands the importance of working with friends and family who share values and work ethic. That is why Florida Hospital has created an Employee Referral program designed to reward employees who refer friends and family to work for Florida Hospital! I was actually referred to work at Florida Hospital by my husband.
I wanted to give a quick overview of the program:
-A specific website was created to submit referrals for all departments/specialties.
-Points are awarded for each referral, and employees can earn even more points if the referral is hired!
-As the points accrue, employees can shop over 1,300 name brand items without having to worry about taxes or shipping fees.
-The shopping atmosphere is similar to Amazon.com.
“The reason we switched from a monetary to points-based rewards system was value. Cash has no lasting effects. If you were to receive a flat-screen TV for your referrals, every time you look at it, you will remember that Florida Hospital values your friends and family,” says Elizabeth Philcox, Referral Program representative.
This summer, Florida Hospital has a neat challenge for employees: The individual who refers the most RNs who are hired between now and September receive an all-expenses paid vacation of their choice!
