IN OCTOBER 2025, FUNCTIONAL INDUSTRIES MADE THE DECISION TO INCREASE ALL HOURLY EMPLOYEES WAGES ONE DOLLAR. THIS ALSO PROVIDED AN OPPORTUNITY TO INCREASE STARTING WAGES FOR HOURLY POSITIONS, INCLUDING OUR DIRECT SUPPORT PROFESSIONALS. THE INCREASE DEMONSTRATED POSITIVE SUPPORT TOWARDS INDIVIDUALS CURRENTLY WORKING AT FUNCTIONAL INDUSTRIES IN HOPES OF RETENTION. WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO INCREASE THE STARTING WAGE, THE GOAL IS TO APPEAL TO MORE PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY TO APPLY FOR OPEN POSITIONS, WHICH IN TURN THEN WE CAN BRING BACK MORE INDIVIDUALS OFF THE WAITLIST.
