Employees' Assistance Programs
Employees' Assistance Programs (EAPs) are employer-sponsored services designed to support employees' well-being. They offer confidential help for issues such as stress, mental health, substance abuse, personal crises, or work-related problems. EAPs typically include counseling, resources, and referrals to professional support. The goal is to improve employees’ overall health and productivity, benefiting both the individual and the organization. These programs are usually free to employees and accessible through their employer, emphasizing the importance of mental and emotional health in the workplace.
