Employee Assistance Programmes (EAP) - help improve productivity in the workplace

In fact, every employer needs to demonstrate there are adequate arrangements in place to help employees deal with stress in the workplace.

 

The EAP from Towergate provides unlimited access to a 24/7 helpline, and if needed a network of counsellors are available to carry out face-to-face consultations.

 

This ensures employees can access the right advice and support to deal with workplace issues such as stress, role change or workplace conflict. 

 

Our EAP not only provides support in the workplace, it also allows employees and their families to call with issues that are not strictly related to work but which can affect productivity.

 

Predictable life events such as marriage or moving house can be less disruptive if properly planned; crises such as bereavement can be dealt with better if experienced support is available.

 

Employees and their families can also access a resource-rich website to gather information and possible solutions.

 

With an EAP in place, issues that might affect workplace productivity can be better identified, prevented or treated. Employers can be supplied with quality anonymised management and clinical information, enabling the early identification of corporate issues that may require action.
