Close Employee Benefits
For Starters
To get you started here's a little taste of what you can expect when you become a part of the H-Team!
Do you need a tune-up? With our medical, dental and vision plans, Heritage employees can ensure they're in great condition.
Due to rising deductibles, Heritage offers to pay a portion of your deductible through a health reimbursement account..
Employees can set aside $3,050 annually on a pre-tax basis for approved health care expenses and up to $5,000 for dependent care reimbursement with company match.
401k
Employees can set aside pre-tax money in our 401k plan after a year of employment with us. The company matches 100% of the first 3% you set aside plus an additional 50% match on the next 2%. Employees are fully vested in the company match right away!
Life Insurance
Heritage provides all employees with a $50,000 life and accidental death benefit at no cost to the employee. Additionally, employees may purchase a life insurance plan of their choosing, at their own cost.
Paid Holidays
All employees will receive 8 paid holidays per year.
Vacation Time
Vacation time is immediately accrued on a monthly basis. For the first 0-5 years of service the accrual is 8 hours per month and after 6+ years of service the accrual is 10 hours per month.
Community Involvement
Here at Heritage we love being a part of our community and we always have opportunities for employees to get involved and give back. Join in for one (or all) of our quarterly H-Team community events and feel good about giving back to your local community.

Childcare Reimbursement
Heritage provides Dependent Care Accounts (DCAs) where employees can set aside up to $5,000 in pre-tax dollars for childcare expenses. With the Childcare Reimbursement Account, Heritage will match dollar for dollar the amount contributed by employees into their DCA, which means Heritage will reimburse as much as $5,000 towards daycare expenses to employees using a DCA.
