An overview
An Employee Assistance Program – EAP – is a confidential, professional counselling service designed to assist employees and members of their immediate families.
Use this service freely, to discuss any personal issue. You can talk about issues that affect your health, your family, your general well-being or your ability to be productive and focus at work.
You can come to your EAP counsellor as many times as you want, for as long as you need to.
Confidentiality
Be reassured that under no circumstances will your EAP counsellor discuss your situation with anyone at your workplace, without your written consent. Your counsellor’s job is to work with you and/or your family to help you overcome personal or professional obstacles.
