What Is an Employee Assistance Program (EAP)?
An EAP is a workplace initiative that offers confidential counseling and support to employees. It’s designed to help staff deal with personal or work-related issues that might affect their performance, health, or well-being.
EAP services may include:
One-on-one therapy sessions
Family and relationship counseling
Mental health crisis support
Workshops and wellness sessions
Why Should Your Company Offer an EAP?
Improves employee well-being – Regular access to mental health resources can improve morale, resilience, and emotional health among your workforce.
Reduces absenteeism and burnout – When employees have someone to talk to, they are less likely to miss work due to stress or illness.
Promotes a healthier, more productive workplace – A mentally healthy employee is more engaged, focused, and motivated.
Supports mental health stigma reduction – Creating a culture of support normalizes mental health conversations at work.
By offering an EAP, you're not only helping your employees — you're also investing in the long-term success and sustainability of your business.
