EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE DEVELOPMENT SERVICE


The Coordinating Agency offers employers the opportunity to establish and/or enhance an Employee Assistance Program by contracting for the Agency's EAP development service.

This cost effective activity includes all essential elements necessary to assist the employer in meeting Federal Drug-Free Workplace (PL 100-690) requirements. In addition we will work with those employers who must comply with Department of Transportation regulations. The program's services will aid the employer in addressing the variety of issues that employees may bring to the workplace. With an annual contract cost than is very reasonable, competitive and addresses the issues of both full and part time employees, an employer will receive:

1) Employer policy development/review (EAP, Drug-Free Workplace, Substance Abuse, Drug Testing and DOT Regulations - if applicable).
2) Assistance with implementation of internal procedures and practices.
3) Assessment and referral services for employees and immediate family unlimited access to EAP Assessment Services as needed) to include but not limited to issues related to substance abuse, gambling, marital difficulties, family problems, financial issues and emotional problems.
4) Information/educational presentations for employees to include access to appropriate
Audio/Visual components.
5) Supervisor training specific to job performance review and troubled employees.
6) Assistance with development of informational displays/posters.
7) Assistance with "marketing" the EAP in your workplace.
8) "Emergency" services; 24-hour EAP phone line.

The value of an effective EAP for the employee cannot be overstated. When the problem is alcoholism or other chemical dependency, a company's overall productivity can be seriously impacted in lost job effectiveness alone. The Coordinating Agency's EAP development service can help.
