At NC State, we know your ability to balance the requirements of work and the demands of life is a top priority. As a member of our community, you’ll have access to find many great perks designed to support you and help you and your needs.
Work-Life Balance
- Our goal is to build a thriving pack. The university helps faculty and staff achieve their healthy lifestyle goals by providing programs and services that address the six elements of wellness.
- We’ve established flexible work options that meet the needs of both employees and business units in this ever-changing, globally influenced, work environment.
- We recognize your need to balance work with outside interests and obligations. That’s why we provide paid-leave benefits so our employees can take time away from work, whether it’s to handle personal matters, take care of illnesses or otherwise look after their physical and emotional well-being. In addition to that time, we all get to unwind during our paid winter break in December, when the university closes for a week.
Your Wellness and Benefits
- Faculty and staff who work near our main campus can meet all of their recreation and fitness needs in one place. Our Wellness and Recreation Center and Carmichael Gym include five cardio and weight-training rooms, 11 indoor basketball/multi-purpose courts, indoor tracks, 18 racquetball courts, six fitness studios, squash courts, a steam and sauna room, table tennis, an indoor climbing wall, a gymnastics training area, four outdoor basketball courts, 12 outdoor tennis courts and an outdoor adventures equipment rental center.
- With more than 40 locations for food, snacks and coffee, you’ll never go hungry. We offer healthy menu options through award-winning dining services.
- We keep you smiling: Employees have access to two on-campus comprehensive dental offices offered through Campus Smiles.
- Personal issues, planning for life events or simply managing daily life can affect your work, health and family. Our Faculty and Staff Assistance Program provides support, resources and information to help employees address personal and work-life issues. FASAP is university-sponsored, confidential and provided for free to employees and their dependents.
- NC State offers a wide variety of benefits, including health, dental, vision, critical illness, flexible spending and legal plans.
- The university offers retirement plans.
