What does an EAP do?
Your Employee Assistance Program helps employees and their immediate family members deal with their personal problems in a confidential manner. The EAP staff is dedicated to solving problems that affect personal well being, performance, and productivity.
These problems cover a wide range: from financial or legal difficulties, marital or family conflicts, to alcohol or drug abuse.
Professional Service. Your EAP has an experienced, professional staff available, once you keep an appointment, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The SOEAP staff of counseling professionals includes marriage and family therapists, psychologists, and social workers.
Assessment. These persons work with the employee or family members to assess the nature of the problem and to agree on a plan of action to best resolve it.
Counseling. Free counseling is provided by the SOEAP staff and affiliates. In many cases this free counseling is all that's needed to resolve the problem.
Referral Services. Sometimes it's necessary to refer an employee to another professional service. If the employee agrees, the EAP counselor selects the service provider or treatment center best suited to assist with the problem.
Follow-up. The SOEAP counselor or affiliate monitors this services to assure that the employees (or family members) receive the best possible assistance and care.
