Members are able to access these services in complete confidence, 24 hours a day.

What is an Employee Assistance Programme?

Personal issues and problems can have an impact on the way people work, resulting in reduced performance, lack of focus and absence. This can lead to significant costs to a business, not just in hours lost but in low productivity and an unbalanced working environment. 

An Employee Assistance Programme – or EAP for short – enables employers to prevent many of their employees’ problems at home and at work from escalating. We’re on hand 24/7 with practical advice and support if ever life takes a wrong turn.
