 More
than just a paycheck. Our work is about people.
We
believe that employees are state government's most valuable asset. That's why
competitive salaries and excellent benefits - including a comprehensive medical,
dental and life insurance program, retirement, flex-time, telecommuting and great
opportunities for advancement are offered. We believe our excellent work environment
is a major factor in promoting high levels of employee health, longevity and satisfaction.
The State of Minnesota is Minnesota's largest employer - and because the scope
of services that we provide to citizens is large and varied, there is an excellent
chance that we have the right job for you - whatever your profession, occupation
or career interest might be! But
the best thing about working for the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) is knowing
that your work contributes to the health and wellness of all people in Minnesota.
Minnesota is known as one of the healthiest states in the nation. Much of the
credit for our good health is due to the state's strong public health system.
Public health programs that promote clean water, safe food, quality health care
and healthy choices are contributing to longer, healthier lives. While we may
be best known for responding to disease outbreaks, promoting immunizations, or
issuing "boil orders" for contaminated water, our activities are diverse
and far-reaching. For
us, a diverse workforce is essential to achieving our mission. The strength of
the department lies with its employees, all extremely dedicated to protecting,
maintaining and improving the public's health. Our employees work in a wide range
of occupations covering more than 225 job classifications. Some examples include
specialists in the areas of: planning, administration, epidemiology, scientific
research, nursing, information technology, web design, communications, research
analysis and laboratory technology.
Whether
you are in a clerical, technical, professional or managerial position, your work
adds tremendous value to the citizens of this state. See Minnesota Department of Health Addresses and Directions around the state.
