Wage increase comes five years earlier than New Jersey state law
February 1, 2019 – Englewood Health, the health system comprising Englewood Hospital and the Englewood Health Physician Network, has increased its minimum wage to $15/hour. The increase will be effective for eligible employees by the end of 2019.
“We are delighted to offer this significant increase to many of our valuable employees,” said Warren Geller, president and CEO of Englewood Health. “The decision to increase our minimum wage is a reflection of the important work that our front line and support staff do for our patients and community everyday and our commitment to being an employer of choice.”
This move comes five years earlier than the implementation of the New Jersey state law mandating a $15 minimum wage.
Englewood Health is the largest employer in the city of Englewood and a major driver of the economic health of the city.
