ADMINISTRATOR I

Introduction to Maryland’s Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) program makes sure all workers in Maryland have paid time off for medical and family reasons. FAMLI is a social insurance system covering 2.8 million workers and 180,000 employers, delivered as a digitally native, public-facing service. We’re in the early stages of building something as big and as far-reaching as unemployment insurance or a new health department. We know that delivering services primarily through a website, over the Internet, is a new way of doing business in government. We recognize that nothing we do matters if people do not know this program exists. Over the next couple of years the Community and Stakeholder Engagement team will be working to ensure Maryland businesses and workers know about the FAMLI program and understand what it means to them. The Community and Stakeholder Engagement team are the bridge builders at FAMLI. They strengthen the organization’s links with communities and stakeholders across Maryland by listening and telling stories. They face both outwards and inwards: they tell Marylanders the story of FAMLI and build empathy by listening to and learning from the communities that FAMLI serves.
