What is an Employee Assistance Program?
In short words, an employee assistance program (EAP) is a work-based intervention program designed to address personal and work-related problems that may impact employee productivity, health, and well-being. EAP services are provided by organizations or employers to employees and their families through counselors, social workers, psychologists, or psychiatrists.
Organizations implement EAPs to address a variety of issues including substance abuse, stress management, grief counseling, relationship difficulties, and workplace conflict. By offering these services, employers hope to improve employee morale, job satisfaction, and productivity while also reducing healthcare costs and absenteeism.
Employee mental health in Brazil
Brazil is a country that is notorious for its high levels of stress and anxiety. A study done by the World Health Organization found that Brazilians are some of the most stressed people in the world, with an average stress level of 6.5 out of 10.
There are many factors that contribute to the high levels of mental health problems among employees in Brazil. One of the most significant factors is the country’s economic situation. Brazil is currently going through an economic recession, which has led to job losses and wage cuts for many workers. This can lead to feelings of insecurity and stress.
Finally, the working conditions in Brazil are often very poor. Many workers are required to work long hours for little pay, and they are often exposed to hazardous conditions. This can lead to stress and other health problems.
