Osceola, Wisconsin – Family Friendly Workplaces (FFW) is excited to announce that Osceola Medical Center (OMC), a Gold-Level certified Family Friendly Workplace, recently made their annual conduit contribution to Mental Health Task Force of Polk County. This meaningful contribution reflects OMC’s ongoing commitment to supporting families and strengthening the local community.

“At OMC, we deeply value the well-being of our employees and understand the vital role that strong family connections play in their overall fulfillment and success,” said Kelly Macken-Marble, CEO of OMC. “Being recognized in this way affirms our ongoing commitment to cultivating a workplace culture that supports work-life balance, prioritizes employee wellness, and strengthens our ties to the broader community.”

As part of its ongoing commitment as a Certified Family Friendly Workplace, OMC continues to support family-supporting nonprofits through annual conduit contributions. This year, OMC made a generous donation to Mental Health Task Force of Polk County, furthering its mission to create family-friendly environments in the local community.

OMC also continues to serve as a generous corporate sponsor of Family Friendly Workplaces directly, helping ensure the FFW can continue to certify other employers across northwestern Wisconsin.

Neil Kline, Executive Director of Family Friendly Workplaces, shared his appreciation for OMC’s ongoing commitment. “We are deeply appreciative of OMC continued commitment to Family Friendly Workplaces and families and children across northwestern Wisconsin. Their continued support reflects true leadership in championing family-first policies and inspiring other employers across Polk, Burnett, St. Croix, and Pierce counties to adopt more supportive, family-focused workplace practices.”

The certification process involves a comprehensive review of an employer’s policies and practices that support families. By achieving this certification, OMC can proudly display the Family Friendly Workplaces logo, further strengthening their ability to attract and retain top talent.
