Employee Benefits
Health Insurance & Health Savings Account
ECRS offers comprehensive health coverage for employees and their families at a low cost to the employee, with ECRS covering the majority of premiums across all coverage tiers. Enrolled employees also gain access to a Health Savings Account (HSA) — a simple, tax-free way to save for and manage healthcare expenses for themselves and their families. Employees can contribute their own pre-tax dollars, and each year ECRS adds a generous employer contribution directly into the employee’s HSA, with contribution levels designed to support both individual and family coverage.
Life & Long-Term Disability Insurance
ECRS is committed to protecting employees and their families through life’s challenging moments. Full-time employees receive life insurance with a $100,000 cash benefit, plus long-term disability coverage offering up to 60% of monthly salary at minimal cost.
401(k) Retirement Plan
ECRS helps employees plan for the future with our 401(k), which lets employees contribute a portion of their wages toward an individual retirement account. ECRS offers a generous employer match on a 5-year vesting schedule.
Paid Leave
Full-time employees receive Paid Time Off (PTO), Paid Sick Leave, and Holiday Pay to rest, recharge, pursue personal interests, and handle life’s demands — along with additional forms of paid leave that support flexibility and balance across a wide range of life circumstances.
Parental Leave & Daycare Priority Program
ECRS proudly supports employees as their families grow, recognizing the significance of these meaningful life transitions. Our paid parental leave benefits foster precious bonding time, allow mothers to heal, and provide thoughtful support to ease the return to work for all parents.
To help ease the stress of finding available childcare in Boone, ECRS partners with Kid Cove Childcare center which provides ECRS working parent(s) waitlist priority for their childcare center.
Dependent Care Program (DCFSA)
We know childcare and dependent care are among the biggest pressures facing working families. That’s why ECRS offers a Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account, letting employees set aside pre-tax dollars for qualifying expenses like daycare, preschool, before- and after-school care, and elder care. Even better — ECRS makes a generous employer contribution directly into the employee’s DCFSA, with tiered contributions designed to meet families wherever they are in their caregiving journey.
Employee Recognition & Community
ECRS encourages a culture of teamwork, collaboration, and recognition by embracing our core value: Recognize and Reward. Through our employee recognition program and annual awards, we celebrate individual and collective contributions that drive our success.
Beyond the workplace, we understand the importance of community and connection. ECRS team members are invited to participate in a variety of company-hosted events throughout the year and are encouraged to give back through volunteer opportunities with local Boone-area organizations.
