Life at SAIF
For many employees it's our culture—our focus on diversity, work-life balance, health and wellness, and much more—that sets us apart.
Locations
We cover the entire state of Oregon, with our main campus in Salem and other offices in Bend, Eugene, Medford, North Bend, and Portland (Lake Oswego).
But we’re also committed to offering a flexible workplace that serves the needs of our customers while providing employees with work options that make sense for them. Most of our employees work remotely at least some of the time.
Community values
We've been part of Oregon communities for more than 100 years. Today, SAIF employees continue to give back by volunteering—and SAIF supports them by offering up to four hours of company time a year for volunteer activities.
Employees donate food, clothes, and household items to people and families in need and support many other good causes. They’re active, collaborative members of our local communities and good stewards of the resources entrusted to us.

- Free on-site health clinic, fitness center, and recreation center in Salem and fitness and recreation opportunities in regional offices
- Wellness activities, including onsite chair massage, cooking classes, health webinars, interest groups, and corporate challenges

- Lactation and quiet rooms
- A mental health platform that includes free, confidential outside counseling and coaching for employees and their eligible dependents
Life and work
We take our commitment to employers and injured workers seriously. But there's more to life than your job—no matter how much you love it.
That's why we've been one of Oregon's leading companies in helping our employees focus on family and home life as well as their work. A few examples you'll find at SAIF:
- Flexible and alternative work schedules
- Telecommuting, teleworking, and "hoteling" opportunities
- Lactation rooms
- Vacation and paid time off benefits
