What is an Employee Assistance Program?
Employee assistance programs (EAPs) are work-based programs that help employees deal with personal problems that may affect their job performance. EAPs generally offer free or low-cost counseling, referral, and other services to employees and sometimes to their families as well.
EAPs can address a wide range of issues, including mental health, substance abuse, stress management, relationship difficulties, financial concerns, and more. While each EAP is different, most provide confidential assessment and short-term counseling services to help employees resolve personal problems before they adversely affect job performance. Some EAPs also offer training and education on topics such as stress management, conflict resolution, and wellness.
