Employee Assistance Programs

Employee productivity is important for any business’ success, but sometimes employees are too overwhelmed by personal or behavioral problems to perform at their highest level.

What is an Employee Assistance Program (EAP)?

High stress, psychological problems, substance abuse, legal troubles and other personal issues can lead to lower productivity and focus during work, increased absenteeism and higher health care costs. An EAP can address these issues and help you tend to your personal needs.

An employee assistance program is an employer-sponsored program that offers services to help you deal with personal problems. EAP’s can help reduce your health care and disability claims, increase your productivity and morale and lower absenteeism.

What do EAP's cover?

EAPs can vary from employer to employer, but most have common elements. Some programs are limited and stick to alcohol and drug abuse, but many programs offer expanded services that address a variety of areas. Typical issues addressed include the following:

  • Alcohol or substance abuse
  • Smoking cessation
  • Divorce/marital problems
