Employee Assistance Programme

Confidential support for your people, whenever they need it.

Personal challenges can affect how people feel, both at home and at work. 

Through our partnership with Albion Legal, we can help you offer an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP), delivered in partnership with employee health specialists HealthHero.

The service provides a confidential, 24/7 telephone helpline, giving employees access to professional counselling support when they need someone to talk to.

How can an EAP help your staff?

• Stress and feeling overwhelmed: Support to talk through pressures at work or home and explore ways to manage them.
• Anxiety and low mood: Access to a trained counsellor who can listen and help employees understand their feelings.
• Family and relationship difficulties: A confidential space to discuss personal challenges that may be affecting their wellbeing.
• Bereavement and loss: Emotional support during a difficult time, helping employees work through grief at their own pace.
• Financial worries: Someone to talk to about the emotional impact of money concerns, with information and signposting to further help.
• Understanding what support they need: A counsellor assessment to explore their concerns and identify appropriate next steps.
• Support outside working hours: Round-the-clock access, so employees can reach out at a time that suits them.
• Looking after their wellbeing: Access to self-help resources and mental fitness tools to support their day-to-day wellbeing.

Helpline counsellors are accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Additional options, including face-to-face counselling, are also available.

Offering an EAP gives your people somewhere to turn when things feel difficult. 

It can also help you build a more supportive workplace, where employees know they do not have to manage everything on their own.
