Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a work-based program designed to help employees deal with personal and work-related issues. It offers confidential counseling and support services for a range of challenges, including stress, mental health, family problems, and substance abuse. EAPs aim to improve employees' well-being and productivity by providing them with resources to handle difficulties that may affect their job performance. These programs are usually free for employees and can include in-person visits, phone consultations, and online resources, ensuring support is accessible and flexible.
