Human Resources: Employee Benefits

"I believe that Peoria County has an exceptional Wellness Benefit and I would encourage all employees and dependants on the County Health Insurance to take advantage of it. Using this benefit can increase the chances of determining health problems or risks in the early stages. Identifying these problems or risks early not only benefits the individual in regards to prognosis, treatment, and cost, but also minimizes expenditures to the health plan, which benefits all participants of the health plan."

- Doug Gaa, 15 years, Peoria County Sheriff's Office

Peoria County recognizes that exceptional benefits are key to attracting, retaining, and motivating great employees. That's why we have assembled a benefits package that rivals other employers, public and private. Our Employee Health Plan and Wellness Benefit are designed to keep our employees healthy and well. The Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF) pension offers employees a secure retirement, especially when combined with an individual 457 deferred compensation retirement plan. From tuition re-imbursement to employee discounts with local merchants, our fantastic employee benefits are another reason to be an employee of Peoria County.
