Community Health Network to Increase Minimum Wage for Employees INDIANAPOLIS — Community Health Network announced Wednesday it will raise the minimum wage for its hourly employees. Community’s current minimum wage of $12.50 will increase to $15 on July 12. The planned increase will impact more than 4,000 of the Network’s nearly 16,000 employees. Both Indiana and the Federal Minimum Wage rates are $7.25 for most employees. “We continue to invest in improving patient and caregiver experiences,” said Michelle Mahaffey, Chief Human Resources Officer Community Health Network. “The only way we can truly provide the best possible experience is to recruit and retain a talented and caring workforce. While compensation is only one piece of the overall benefits package, we recognize it is an important component.”
