Employee Voice at Swedish Medical Center

The foundation of our commitment to our employees is their ability to speak up without fear of reprisal. Having a say about their jobs and surroundings is crucial to good patient outcomes and a rewarding work life. By participating in advisory groups and surveys, our employees voices are heard. If an employee has a concern or suggestions about how to make his/her workplace better, or safer, the employee can take it to a group of co-workers and have it considered. Our employees are recognized as important members of our team and urged to participate in:

• Employee Advisory Groups
• The annual Employee Engagement Survey
• Employee forums
• "Open Door" discussions with the leadership team

Our employees are encouraged to speak up on matters of importance to them or anything they believe may affect the potential safety or care of patients.
