GREATER ADIRONDACK HOME AIDES
 

Working for Greater Adirondack Home Aides is more than just personally rewarding. There are a number of benefits to being part of GAHA's winning team:

Flexible Hours
You can generally make your work schedule fit your family's needs. All of our employees can take advantage of health insurance, a vision plan and an employee-contribution tax-sheltered retirement plan. If your hours of availability are 25 hours or more per week, the agency will contribute $100 per month toward your health insurance and you are eligible for paid vacation.

Bonuses & Incentives
Great work deserves a reward, and GAHA offers financial incentives for aides who do an outstanding job.

Travel Expenses
GAHA paves the way as you travel from one client to the next, paying not only for mileage but travel time as well.

Close to Home
Because GAHA serves Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties, we can find you work in your area.

Insured
GAHA employees are covered by the agency's professional-liability and worker's compensation insurance.

Staff Savings - Employees of Greater Adirondack Home Aides receive special benefits they can use every day.

Chamber of Commerce Discounts
Because GAHA is a member of the Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce, our employees can save money at a large number of local businesses such as the Adirondack Coach House and Jack's Place Family Restaurant.

Automotive Discounts
GAHA employees receive discounts that will make getting from Point A to Point B - on or off the job - that much easier with two automotive discounts. Employees receive a Warren Tire Employee Discount card good for 10% off service and more. Also, we offer a 10% Employee Discount on AAA memberships.

Dining Discounts
Entertainment books, featuring coupons for a variety of area establishments, are available to GAHA employees at a discounted cost. Also, if you show your badge at the Civic Center Burger King, you and your family receive 10% off food and beverage purchases. (Families must accompany aide at time of purchase.)

BJ's Wholesale Club
GAHA employees can purchase BJ's Wholesale Club memberships for half the regular price. Please see the office manager for more information.

Health Benefits and More - Greater Adirondack Home Aides offers a health care package and retirement plan that we encourage employees to take advantage of.

Health and Dental Insurance
All employees are eligible for health and dental insurance immediately after hire. The premiums are deducted pre-tax from your paycheck. After 90 days of employment, employees whose hours of availability are 25+ hours per week will receive $70 per month toward your health insurance from GAHA.

Vision Plans
GAHA provides two discount vision plans to employees, namely Bay Optical Corporate Vision Care Plan and Empire Vision Center Employee Discount Plan.

Retirement Plan
Start saving for the future with this special program that offers employees a long-term retirement investment program in which you can choose how much you want to save each paycheck - and you won't have to pay any current income tax on the interest of your tax sheltered annuity.

Cafeteria Plan
We offer a cafeteria plan in which money for your health insurance and tax sheltered annuities are withdrawn from your pay before taxes. All employees are eligible to be reimbursed as you pay for medical services and provide documentation if you participate in our cafeteria plan.

Vacation
Full-time employees (those whose hours of availability are 25 hours or more per week) are eligible for paid vacation, based on completed years of employment and actual hours worked.
