BENEFITS & EMPLOYEE REWARDS
Full-Time Employee Benefits
The NFL has developed a comprehensive compensation and benefits package for all employees classified by the NFL as full-time employees, so they can be their best selves inside and outside of work. As described below, we offer a wide range of benefits in areas including health, family, retirement, and wellness.
Full-Time Employee Bonus Eligibility
Full-time employees who are exempt from overtime are eligible to be considered for an annual discretionary performance bonus, subject to additional eligibility criteria such as dates of employment. Bonus consideration is subject to the annual performance review and is at the discretion of the NFL as to timing and amount, if any.
Part-Time & Seasonal Employee Benefits
Benefits are also offered to employees classified by the NFL as part-time and seasonal employees, subject to their meeting qualifying standards. These benefits include medical coverage, prescription coverage, flexible spending accounts, and participation in the NFL’s pension plan and 401(k) retirement plan. Eligibility is governed by the terms of each applicable plan. Part-time and seasonal employees accrue wellness days consistent with applicable paid sick time and similar laws.
External Agency Employee Benefits
Benefits are also offered to NFL staff employed by external agency partners through their agency employer, subject to their meeting qualifying standards. These benefits include medical, dental, and vision insurance, as well as paid vacation. In addition, external agency employees accrue wellness days consistent with applicable paid sick time and similar laws.
