Northern Light Health announced this morning that it will increase its minimum starting rate to $15.00 an hour across the organization and thus the state of Maine.  The adjustment has already begun and will be completed by June 1, 2021.

“We continually evaluate our compensation to ensure that we remain very competitive.  We were able to support this effort through the hard work from our leadership team and every staff member who focused on increasing access to services for our community.  This is something to be celebrated,” said Paul Bolin, MBA, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, senior vice president and chief human resources officer for Northern Light.
