An EAP (Employee Assistance Program) is an employer funded counseling resource provided to organization members and their families. EAP counselors help employees manage personal and/or work-related problems that can impact their productivity, health, and emotional well-being.
EAPs help mitigate personal crises during difficult life events (marital, family, stress, substance abuse, grief) and periods of heavy work responsibilities.
An EAP is one of the most effective solutions for providing genuine mental health support to people you care about. EAPs support employee retention, promote employee longevity, and contribute to increases in long and short term productivity.
