| Union contract | Rush University Medical Center has collective bargaining units among its staff, and Rush's own careers site states that for a union-represented employee the contract, not the standard benefits book, decides what you are eligible for. Rush does not publish which units are covered or by which union, so ask which contract applies to the specific job before you take it. |
|---|---|
| Hours a week to qualify | Rush publishes no hours number. Its careers site says eligibility turns on work location, job classification, job status and regular work hours — and for staff in a collective bargaining unit the contract sets eligibility instead. For an hourly or per-diem job at Rush the threshold is a question to ask the recruiter in writing, because it is not on the page. |
| Paid training | Rush's nurse apprenticeship is an eight-week summer student nurse externship at Rush University Medical Center that nursing students are hired into, and Rush runs an ADN-to-BSN pathway that gives working associate-degree nurses full tuition reimbursement while they earn the bachelor's. The externship page does not state the wage, so confirm the rate before accepting. |
the legal floor where they are
Set by law, not by Rush University Medical Center campus staff. It applies to every employer in this place.
| IVF cycles the state covers | THERE IS NO FEDERAL MANDATE. No US law requires an employer health plan to cover IVF or any infertility treatment, so coverage comes either from the insurance mandate in the state where the plan is written or from the employer's own choice. And the state mandates reach less far than they look: they bind fully insured plans bought from a state-regulated carrier, while a self-funded employer plan is governed federally under ERISA and is preempted from state insurance regulation. KFF's 2025 employer survey puts 67% of covered workers in a self-funded plan, and 80% of those at firms of 200 or more — so at the size of employer this site mostly covers, the state mandate usually does not apply, and any fertility benefit is a genuine company choice rather than a restatement of law. That is precisely why it belongs on a benefits page here. Perks has not yet read this employer's own state insurance mandate from an official source; the states that have been read carry their own entry. (No federal statute requires an employer health plan to cover infertility treatment or IVF. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) preempts state insurance regulation as applied to self-funded employer plans, which is why a state mandate does not reach them.) |
|---|---|
| Adoption leave the law gives | 12 workweeks of UNPAID job-protected leave in any 12-month period on the placement of a child for adoption or foster care, and only for employees who meet the FMLA eligibility test. There is no federal paid adoption leave. (Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. 2612(a)(1)(B) and 2612(c); eligibility at 29 U.S.C. 2611(2) and (4). Quoted from the 2023 edition of the US Code.) |
| Pay when you are ill | No federal law requires any paid sick leave. The FLSA does not require payment for time not worked, and the FMLA gives 12 workweeks of UNPAID job-protected leave in any 12-month period for a serious health condition, and only for employees who meet the FMLA eligibility test. Any paid sick time comes from a state or city law, or from the employer's own choice. (Fair Labor Standards Act, per the Department of Labor's statement on payment for time not worked; Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. 2612(a)(1)(D) and 2612(c). Quoted from the 2023 edition of the US Code on govinfo.gov.) |
