Employee Assistance Programs/Services (EAP/EAS)

What is an Employee Assistance Program or Employee Assistance Service?

"An EAP is a work-based early intervention aimed at the early identification and/or resolution of both work and personal problems that may adversely effect performance.  These problems may include, but are not limited to health, marital/relationships, family, financial, substance abuse or emotional concerns."

Langmont Advantage provides tailor made Employee Assistance Programs and Services designed to benefit employers by improving and maintaining employees ability to manage work and life stresses.  The provision of an effective EAP has been shown to reduce absenteeism and staff turnover and to increase productivity.

We will design an EAP that will not only complement your organisation's future plans and objectives but will assist in achieving those goals by focusing on the wellbeing of the most important asset to your business or organisation - your employees.  We do this by providing solution focused counselling, manager/supervisor support and training at all levels in the organisation.

To maximise the effectiveness of an EAP it is vital that supervisors and managers understand the objectives of the EAP, ensure employees are aware of the assistance program, its services and the means of accessing the services.  Langmont Advantage provides follow-up with key personnel within our client organisations to assist in the process of developing employee confidence in the provision of our services, in developing trust that confidentiality will be maintained and confidence that their specific needs will be met.  Through this process the full potential and benefits of an EAP can be realised.
