Unitarian Universalism is grounded in justice, equity, and compassion for others. Let us guide you in ensuring that your congregation is living these values within your own walls by offering fair compensation, insurance, and other benefits that keep your staff healthy and protected from hardship.
The UUA wants to help our congregations live into their values by offering insurance plans that protect their employees, including benefit plans that reflect UU values. Our benefits are competitive, and the plans have always done their best to live up to our UU values, offering fuller coverage for people of all identities and for families of all shapes and sizes.
As an employer, the congregation is subject to federal, state and local employment laws. Learn and follow how you can keep your congregation in compliance to avoid fines or other penalties.
