In any organisation, employees will have personal problems that affect their ability to do their job. Companies increasingly recognise that the personal difficulties of an individual can have an adverse affect on others and potentially upon the whole organisation. The well-being of employees is inextricable linked with the performance, productivity and profitability of the organisation. Many companies now tackle these issues through confidential Employee Assistance Programmes (EAP) recognising that a supportive approach can be a significant way of assisting employees to address their difficulties and can prevent problems becoming entrenched or more pervasive.
Unlike many EAP companies, we charge on a usage basis with a nominal admin charge per annum.
Research has show that organisations who have engaged EAP services have seen the benefits in real terms including
- Improved performance of individuals and teams
- Decreased staff turnover - reduction in recruitment costs
- Decreased absenteeism
- Enhanced morale and increased motivation
- More effective and timely decision making
- Increased flexibility
Employee Assistance Programmes provide:
- Counselling/Consultation sessions (face-to-face and Telephone)
- Education & Training for Management and staff
- Management Consultation and Support
- Mediation/Conflict Resolution (Organisation & Couples)
- Critical Incident Support/Debriefing sessions
- Organisational Wellness/Stress Audit
- Team Facilitation
- Collaborative Launch & Information sessions to staff
- Annual electronic reports/Regular reviews
Organisations can choose to provide some or all of the above to suit their employees needs
