Incentives
At Cottage Health System, we rely on the contributions, creativity, and skills of our employees. Therefore, we offer competitive compensation and benefits that include above-market salaries, premium medical benefits, new-hire bonuses, pension plans, tax savings accounts, rental and mortgage assistance, and relocation packages.

Fit-Friendly Achievement
Cottage has been awarded the American Heart Association’s Fit-Friendly Company Achievement designation for three years in a row. The program recognizes employers that champion the health of their employees and work to create a culture of physical activity in the workplace. The award  recognizes companies for progressive leadership and for making the health and wellness of their staff a priority. It is also meant to encourage other companies to participate and demonstrate similar physical activity practices for their employees. Cottage is the first employer in Santa Barbara County to receive this distinction.
