THE BENEFITS OF
CONTRACTING AN EAP
The
absence of a contractual relationship with an EAP provider leaves
an organisation at considerable risk in times of urgent need, and without
the following assurances:
- Employees can self-refer
to counselling without compromising anonymity or confidentiality
.
- A contract provides
a visible sign of the organisation's concern for it's employees
- Management has immediate
access to the resources of Working Relationships .
- Availability of additional
services
- The availability
of professional staff
- Professional referral
as required.
- The contracted organisation
gets priority service.
- A contracted EAP
can make an immediate response to critical workplace incidents
- A contracted EAP
can become familiar with the culture and objectives of the
organisation and is then able to work collaboratively towards its goals.
- Marketability – for
large contractors, an EAP gives some measure of people stability
within the contracting organisation.
