Work-Life Balance
You work hard at UC but all work and no play can make for unhealthy — and unhappy — people. We offer benefits and programs to help you maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Opportunities to Get Involved

At UC, we love it when faculty, staff and retirees get involved — and there are lots of opportunities at every campus and medical center. We hope you’ll explore the ways you can be a part of your UC community.

As stewards of the public trust, we believe in ethical behavior, inclusiveness, treating each other with respect, accountability and transparency. We aim to be the best at what we do, and we value and encourage open dialogue.
