What is an Employee Assistance Program?
EAP is an employee assistance program. It is a work-based intervention program that helps employees in resolving personal problems that may affect their work performance and health. The goal of an EAP is to help employees maintain their productivity and well-being, while also promoting a positive work-life balance.
EAPs typically offer a confidential counseling service, which can be accessed by employees either on an individual or group basis. Counselors working for EAPs have usually experienced professionals who are trained in dealing with a wide range of issues, including stress management, relationship difficulties, substance abuse, and mental health problems.
Employee mental health in France
France is a country with a long tradition of state intervention in matters of public health, and employee mental health is no exception. According to the study, there are about 1,500 suicides each year in France due to work-related stress, and the number of burnout cases has been rising steadily in recent years.
Despite these efforts, however, the problem of employee mental health remains a significant one in France. In 2018, a study found that only 38% of French workers felt able to talk openly about their mental health with their employer. This suggests that much more needs to be done to improve the situation. There are a number of reasons why employee mental health is such a problem in France. First of all, the French working culture is notoriously demanding, with long hours and high levels of stress. This is compounded by the fact that the French labor market is very competitive, which can lead to feelings of insecurity and anxiety among workers. Additionally, the economic situation in France has been unstable in recent years, with high levels of unemployment and a sluggish economy. This has put additional pressure on workers and made it more difficult for them to cope with stress.
