The Employee Assistance Program is a program providing short-term assessment, counseling and referral for employees experiencing personal or work issues. The program is at no cost to employees and their household members and is strictly confidential. EAP visits have no co-pay and are separate from behavioral health benefits provided by health insurance. In addition to creating a healthy workforce through counseling, Workplace Services has other services to create a safe and efficient workplace through our organizational development and workplace training services.

Employee Assistance Programs have shown to have a great return on investment. One report by the US Department of Labor states that for every dollar spent on an EAP program, $5-$16 are returned in other savings to the organizations. Organizations can benefit from an Employee Assistance Program in various ways including: improved productivity, reduced absenteeism, reduced turnover, reduced accidents at work, improved work performance, and a decrease in the use of health benefits.
