The mission of the Jacksonville Port Authority’s Wellness Committee is to empower employees by contributing and supporting their health, well-being and mental fitness through education, participation and physical resources.
The Jacksonville Port Authority has about 150 employees; however, the private sector customers and tenants who use Port Authority seaport terminals employ thousands of workers. According to economic impact studies, the combined direct, indirect and induced impact of the maritime industries in the Jacksonville area account for more than 65,000 jobs.
Marine industry jobs include import/export companies, container services, dredging and marine construction companies, freight forwarders, custom brokers, rail carriers, ship chandlers, stevedores, towing and barge services and trucking companies among others. Together these companies generate a tremendous economic impact on Florida's First Coast.
