Fair Wages/Total Compensation​

Aspirus has always been committed to market-competitive compensation that reflects the value and expertise of our people.

We are thankful for our dedicated and passionate team. All of our employees play a crucial role in delivering exceptional care. We recognize their hard work, and we are committed to providing the support and resources they need to succeed.

Our philosophy is one of fairness for all, and we work to apply it with rigor and consistency across every role and location.

Proof Points:

  • Becker’s Hospital Review reports that, when the cost of living is factored in, nurses in Minnesota are among the highest-paid in the United States.
  • Other essential workers, like police, fire and rescue, and teachers are ranked far lower for similar heroic work.
  • Aspirus St. Luke’s provides annual step increases and market adjustments.
  • After the 2022 negotiations, nurses received a 17% pay increase over three years – the highest in 20 years.
