Welcome to Kitsap County!  As a member of the Kitsap County team, you are eligible for a wide range of valuable benefits designed to:

· Promote the health and wellness of you and your family

· Protect your income while you are working

· Build financial security for retirement

· Help you balance your life and work responsibilities

· Provide you with career development and educational opportunities

Some benefits are provided automatically, while you must actively choose others.  Most are highly subsidized or even free to you as an important part of your total compensation package. 

All County employees have a choice between two types of medical care options:  a Health Maintenance Organization option, offered through Kaiser Permanente and a Preferred Provider Option, which for most County employees is administered through Premera.
