An employee's health and work performance can be affected by personal, emotional, and job related problems which, if left unresolved, can result in substantial costs to an organization in terms of:

• higher absenteeism and turnover
• reduced productivity
• poor morale
• increased workplace accidents
• long term disability
• rising health care costs and claims
  

An Employee Assistance Program (E.A.P.) is designed to provide confidential counseling services for employees and members of their immediate families who are experiencing personal and/or work related problems. Its primary focus is to promote and maintain the health and well-being of all employees.

Problems covered may include:

• couple and marital relationship
• work related issues
• stress and anxiety
• depression
• child care concerns
• aging family members
• financial and legal concerns
• alcohol and drug addiction
• bereavement
• trauma / critical incident
