From your EAP: Helping Your Kids Cope with War and Terrorism
Why Offer an EAP?
- It shows you care about your employees
- It helps keep personal problems out of the workplace
- It helps the employee access their mental health benefits appropriately
- It helps reduce absenteeism and turnover
- It gives objective, competent choices to those seeking help
How many people really use this service?
Approximately 5 - 10% of your company's population should use the service in some capacity. For example:
- A supervisor may call to consult on the telephone about a troubled employee
- A co-worker may recommend the service to another employee
- A family member may call on their own
The more a company believes in the service and keeps their employees reminded, the more the service will be utilized.
What types of problems are addressed?
- Marital problems
- Family problems
- Substance abuse problems

What about costs?
Our EAP is surprisingly affordable. Two types of contracts are available:

- Hourly fee for service
National studies have shown that for every dollar spent on EAP programs, ten dollars will be saved in health related costs.
