Employee Assistance refers to programs offered by employers to support their employees' mental health and well-being. These programs typically provide confidential counseling services, resources for stress management, and guidance on personal issues such as family problems or financial concerns. The goal is to help employees cope with challenges that may affect their work performance and overall quality of life. These services are often available at no cost to employees and can be accessed through various channels, including phone hotlines, in-person sessions, or online resources. By promoting a healthy work environment, Employee Assistance programs aim to enhance productivity and employee satisfaction while reducing absenteeism and turnover.
