We share our success with our employees. We are proud employee owners and recognize that our efforts and commitment can make a difference in the value of the company. 

We recognize that our employees have lives outside of the workplace. We support initiatives that encourage employees to allocate time and energy for family, volunteering, and health-related activities. 

We help you take care of yourself by offering wellness programs including an onsite fitness center with low-cost membership and a café with fresh and healthy food choices. 

The Employee Assistance Program is available free to eligible Westat employees and family members. This referral service provides help to manage personal or family issues as well as financial and  legal matters. EAP counselors provide assessment, support, and referrals to additional resources.

We provide eligible employees with vacation time, sick leave, holidays, and administrative leave for special situations. Unpaid leave includes leave without pay and Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) leave.

The Westat Savings Plan 401(k) is a defined contribution plan designed to provide tax-deferred, retirement-oriented benefits. We match eligible employee contributions up to 5% of compensation.

We offer a wide variety of benefits reflecting our belief that our staff is our most important asset. 

We encourage staff to stay on the cutting edge of our research industry. We provide eligible employees the opportunity for professional conference attendance, professional association membership, and more.
