What is an Employee Assistance Program?
Employee assistance programs (EAPs) are workplace programs designed to help employees deal with personal and work-related problems. EAPs typically provide confidential assessment, short-term counseling, referral, and follow-up services to employees and their families.
These programs are usually offered free of charge to employees and are usually run by outside counselors or psychologists. Many organizations also have an EAP as part of their employee benefits package.
Employee mental health in Switzerland
In Switzerland, there are approximately 3,000 suicides each year. This number has remained relatively stable over the past few years. Suicide is the main cause of premature death among young adults aged 20 to 34 years.
There are a number of risk factors for suicide, including mental illness, substance abuse, financial problems, relationship difficulties, and social isolation. However, it is important to remember that most people who experience these risk factors do not go on to attempt or die by suicide. Employees who are struggling with mental health problems may be more likely to experience absenteeism, presenteeism, and work-related accidents. They may also have difficulty concentrating, making decisions, and maintaining relationships with co-workers.
