Wellness Incentive Program

Pinellas County is committed to creating a work environment where employees can thrive and reach their maximum potential. Establishing a culture of wellness helps us stay healthy, which keeps insurance costs down for employees and the County.

The Wellness Incentive Program offers employees and their spouses/domestic partners the opportunity to participate in activities that improve wellbeing and earn rewards.

How does the Wellness Incentive Program work?

Participate in your choice of healthy activities to earn rewards.

  • Options – Earn up to $200 cash or 50,000 Rewards Program points. The default for rewards is cash. If you prefer points, see the Reward Points Election Help Guide.
  • Reward Points – To view and redeem points, visit the Pinellas County Rewards Program site (internal SharePoint link) which offers many gifts to choose from. If you leave Pinellas County, you have 90 days to redeem your points.
  • Payout – Incentive rewards (cash or points) are processed semi-annually in March and September. See the incentive payout schedule.
