Employee Assistance Program
Let your employees reinvigorate their personalities with this dynamic program, and watch your workplace almost magically transform.
“A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: We did it ourselves”
Lao Tze
The EAP is premised on the belief that mental health has a direct correlation to the performance and productivity of the employee. EAP is a work-based intervention program designed to identify and assist employees in resolving work-related issues and personal challenges that may be adversely affecting their performance at work, such as marital, financial, emotional problems.
Typically, what happens when you offer an EAP is that an employee under stress can meet or call at a phone number to get immediate help from a Coach. Some of the critical areas where we have worked with the organizations are:
- Work-related concerns
- Personal growth and development issues
- Adjusting to a new culture and isolation
- Marital, family and relationship problems
- Emotional struggles associated with stress, anxiety or depression
- Team building
- Transition from one role to another
- Parenting challenges
- Psychological assessment and testing
- Separation of family members and bereavement
Most EAPs provide a set number of coaching referral sessions, from 1 to 3 or sometimes more depending on individual need at no cost to the employee. This program helps the employee to get the ball rolling.
If issues like Absenteeism, grievances, terminations, medical disability, etc are left untreated in the workplace, they translate into poor performance, missed work, bad customer service and workplace injuries that may cost the employers in terms of disability and workers compensation.
An EAP is designed to give employees the help they need to resolve all kinds of issues, so they can remain on-the-job and productive. It’s a benefit many employees appreciate but may never think to ask for.
