Employee assistance program
Not all EAPs are the same. Our modern, mobile programs provide employees with personalized support that remains accessible to them wherever they are.
In any given year, 1 in 5 people in Canada will personally experience a mental health problem or illness causing impairment and loss of productivity in the workplace.
The good news is that 80% of people who seek help for mild to moderate mental health conditions are able to return to regular activities.
It’s not easy to find the right help at the right time. We reduce barriers to finding targeted support with programs that include 24/7 access to clinically-supported evidence-based therapies such as CBT.
Our team of experienced case managers work in collaboration with physicians, nurses, return-to-work coordinators, rehab specialists, and mental health practitioners to provide the right support at the right time for correctly identified root cause issues, whether they are medical or non-medical in nature. We ensure your employees have the support they need to regain their health and return to work.
