Benefits
AWARE recognizes that benefits are an important part of a total compensation package and give employees the opportunity to make selections that best meet their needs.
Eligibility
Permanent employees who work at least 30 hours per week are eligible for coverage after successful completion of the probation period that includes: 401 K retirement, holiday, and paid leave. Eligible employees and dependent children also qualify for health insurance, health savings account, supplemental life insurance, and accidental death and dismemberment after a 60-day period.
Relief staff are not eligible for the above listed employee benefits, except for the 401K Plan, which is available after the six-month probation.
Pretax Advantage
An added advantage of pretax is that premium payments you contribute for your benefits are automatically paid on a pretax basis. When you pay for your benefits with pretax dollars, you are actually reducing your taxable income.

Health Insurance Plan Options
When you are eligible, you can enroll yourself and eligible dependents in a health insurance plan, with a term life insurance policy, that comes with a health savings account option. AWARE pays a portion of premium costs for any health plan chosen.
Supplemental Life Insurance and AD&D Insurance
Health Insurance enrollment includes Life Insurance and Accidental Death or Dismemberment disability benefits. An employee must carry dependent health insurance coverage in order for his or her dependents to be eligible for the life insurance benefit.
Health Savings Account
A Health Savings Account is an account that is owned by the individual and created from pre-tax contributions that can be used tax free as long as the distributions are used for qualified medical expenses.
401 K Retirement
AWARE is committed to helping you succeed not only at work, but in retirement with a 401K Retirement Plan. Pre-tax contributions are automatically taken from salary which gives your plan the potential to generate earnings, tax-deferred. AWARE may also offer “matching” contributions to your Plan account.
Training

Frequently Asked Questions
What does “OPEN UNTIL FILLED” mean?
If an application deadline reads “Open until filled,” a department is accepting applications until the position is filled, and the vacancy may close without notice. If you have interest in a position, it is highly recommended you apply as soon as you see the announcement. If you apply after the specified “initial review date,” there is no guarantee that your application will be reviewed.
Can I apply for more than one job at a time?
Yes. Only one AWARE application is needed. Positions you are interested in can be listed in the “Position applying for” section of the application.
Can I apply for more than one community at a time?
Yes. Only one AWARE application is needed. Communities you are interested in can be listed in the “City/Town of position applying for” section of the application.
Do I have to fill out all portions of the application if I attach a resume?
Yes. To receive full consideration, you need to completely fill out each section of the application, even if you attach a resume.
Can I attach a resume or cover letter to my application?

How do I know that you have received my application?
Once you submit your application, you will receive a confirmation email within a few hours. If you do not receive a confirmation email after a few hours, check your spam or junk folder. Some email accounts read generated emails as spam and filter them out of your inbox.
How long after I apply might I be called for an interview?
The manager will notify applicants directly if they are selected for an interview. The time varies from 2 to 4 weeks depending on the service conducting the search.
