How has your company adapted programs and services in response to evolving pandemic-related challenges such as staff burnout and workforce shortages? Our company adapted tby committing resources to improve our ability to offer services to our members more efficiently through remote channels and on-site technology. We have also enhanced the technical capabilities of support staff to work remotely when circumstances warrant.

How do you support community service work by your employees? As part of our “WCCU Cares” initiative, all team members are encouraged to participate in community service activities either at our sponsored events or with outside organizations that enhance the lives of the people in communities we serve. We hold a quarterly raffle for team members who volunteer their time and once a year give out a “Volunteer of the Year” award to the team member who was deemed to have gone above and beyond the previous year.

Do you have a preference for promoting existing staff or hiring from outside and why? We want our team members to know that if they develop professionally and perform well, they will have an opportunity to advance.
