Employee Assistance Programme
What is an Employee Assistance Programme?
An Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) provides services and resources to support employees through personal and work-related issues. These may include access to 24/7 helpline services and other short-term support. The scope extends beyond specific mental health support and is designed for accessibility.
Benefits to Employer
An EAP helps employers foster a productive workforce by addressing challenges that contribute to burnout, absenteeism, or reduced performance. EAPs can reduce stress-related absences and long-term sick leave by giving employees access to timely, professional assistance.
Benefits to Employee
An EAP provides employees with ready access to professional support across a wide range of topics, helping to reduce the stigma associated with seeking help. By offering confidential resources, EAPs promote overall wellbeing, enabling employees to better manage stress and achieve a healthier work-life balance. Access to this support can enhance focus, morale, and resilience, making employees feel supported and valued in the workplace. This can result in higher job satisfaction and better productivity.
