Employee Handbook: Employee Assistance Program

Many companies have established Employee Assistance Plans (EAPs) to help employee's recognize and deal with problems that impact their lives. EAPs are generally administered by professional companies in a confidential manner. The services offered by an EAP vary greatly and can be customized to meet the needs of the employer and its employees.

Employee Assistance Program

We encourage our employees to seek assistance, as needed, from qualified professionals. When personal problems and difficulties are identified and appropriately treated in their early stages, the likelihood of a successful outcome is improved. Our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) helps employees deal with problems in a confidential and safe environment.

Should you require assistance with any problem which is impacting your personal and/or professional life, we encourage you to call.

The confidential number is 1-800-xxx-xxxx.

These calls are not monitored and are manned by a privately owned counseling referral service. We, at Small Business Notes, will never be aware of your contact to this service, nor will any reports on your contact or treatment be forwarded to us.

All contact and sessions are strictly confidential. Should visits exceed four (4) times per month consecutively in a three (3) month period, the counselor may refer you to a private therapist or counselor which would be covered under your group benefits.

We encourage you to take this opportunity for assistance, if you feel the need for counseling.
