The
services of EAP are accessible to seek solutions and relief
for virtually any mental or personal life issues,
such as for example health concerns, stress, depression,
personal relationship matters, family affairs, childcare
and eldercare, alcohol, drugs and other addictions, deaths
and similar emotional crises, workplace relationships,
legal issues, financial matters, to mention only a few.
Why
is it important?
In
addition to the quality of one's personal life, workplace
performance is also often adversely affected
by mental and personal life issues. It is a widely recognized
fact, that the effects of stress, anxiety and depression
stemming from problems in personal life, conflicts at
the workplace, or financial worries, for example, unavoidably
appear in the workplace and frequently lead to significant
reduction in attendance, concentration and work attitude.
People
are very often not capable to effectively overcome these
personal issues alone, resulting in prolonged periods
of decreased work performance. EAP provides a
solution.
Additionally,
EAP is a reasonable way for employers to comply with "duty
of care" obligations assigned by law, which includes
reducing mental health risks, among others.
How is it beneficial to the employers?

Substantial
international experience proves that the amount spent
by companies on EAP provides excellent return
on investment, resulting from the benefits outlined
above, making EAP a sound business decision from the financial
point of view as well.

general image of a company is also enhanced
by the fact that it cares for the employees through offering
EAP to them.
