Tyson chaplain

Tyson chaplain

Tyson Chaplains are part-time chaplains hired on by Tyson Foods to make personal contact with employees (which Tyson refers to as "team members") and their families on occasions of family or individual crises, illness, hospitalization, deaths, births, marriages, and special accomplishments. And to provide short-term pastoral counseling when requested by employees, supervisors, or managers.

Chairman John Tyson is a practicing Christian. In addition to placing 128 part-time chaplains (ranging from fundamentalist Christians to Catholic priests to Muslim Imams) in 78 Tyson plants, in 2006, the company invited their customers to download a prayer book, containing prayers from many faiths, including Christianity, Judaism, Islam and Native American spirituality, from their website to read during mealtime.
