SANTA FE/ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Del Norte Credit Union has been recognized for its workplace policies by Family Friendly New Mexico, a statewide initiative developed to recognize and support employers that adopt and implement family friendly policies so that businesses, employees and their families can thrive.
Del Norte Credit Union said it strives to live its “Mission of Improving Lives,” not only for its members, but for its hardworking, dedicated team members as well.
“We embody our Mission through the various programs and benefits we offer our workforce to help them thrive both personally and professionally,” said SVP-HR Lori Schutt.
The Family Friendly New Mexico initiative offers training, support and resources to businesses on how to implement more family friendly policies; provides recognition to companies that offer their employees family friendly benefits; and, acts as a resource and clearinghouse of information for businesses and community leaders as they develop policies on issues such as paid family leave and childcare assistance, the credit union said.
“Del Norte Credit Union creates programs to support the education, growth and wellness needs of our workforce,” the credit union said. “For instance, we provide a robust tuition reimbursement program, various in-house management development programs and self-development training programs, paid leave for employees to volunteer and give back to our communities, and offer top-notch medical, dental and vision benefits, of which DNCU pays 85% of the premiums. We also carefully assess our ability to offer a hybrid work environment when it is feasible. Our recent Values in Action platform, launched recently for employee recognition, has seen high employee engagement.”
