At State Farm, we value our employees and therefore encourage them to achieve a healthy worklife balance. Our worklife and wellness programs support our commitment to help employees achieve personal and professional success.
Flexible work options...
Compressed Workweek
A Compressed Workweek is a scheduling alternative that allows you to work the equivalent of a five-day workweek in less than five days or the equivalent of a two-week work period in less than ten days.
Job Sharing
Job Sharing is a form of part-time work where two employees share responsibilities for one full-time position.
A casual environment...
Business Casual Attire
The Dress Philosophy at State Farm permits relaxed, casual attire. Each zone and corporate department determines to what extent casual wear, including jeans, is appropriate. This encourages a friendly and comfortable atmosphere while still providing a professional, energized work environment.
State Farm Activities Associations
State Farm's Activities Associations promote and encourage social, cultural, outdoor, and physical activities for employees and their families. Some popular activities include: bus trips (sporting events, theater shows, and shopping), holiday parties, and discount tickets.
Live Well, Be Well...
State Farm offers a variety of wellness programs to help employees maintain healthy lifestyles.

Smoking Cessation
State Farm supports employees' efforts to quit smoking by reimbursing them for smoking cessation expenses such as over-the-counter aids, classes, hypnotism, prescription medications, and doctor visits.
Expressions of appreciation...
Anniversary Recognition
State Farm honours individual employees for their years of company service. Employees who complete milestone anniversaries choose a gift from an online catalog. Those with longer seniority receive a monetary award in addition to a catalog gift.
Select-A-Gift
This popular tradition provides a year-end appreciation gift to employees and retirees. Recipients choose their own gift from an online brochure.
Birthday Recognition
Recognizing employees' birthdays is a tradition at State Farm. For years, State Farm employees gave George Mecherle, the founder of the Company, a bouquet of roses on June 7 to celebrate his birthday and Founder's Day. In 1944, Mr. Mecherle turned the tables and began the tradition of giving each employee a rose on the employee's birthday. Today, many State Farm offices continue this tradition of recognizing employees' birthdays.
Other Worklife benefits...
We also provide many other worklife benefits for employees, including automatic teller machines and full service cafeterias (available in many locations).
