Download or read book Cost effectiveness and Preventive Implications of Employee Assistance Programs written by Terry C. Blum and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers what the appropriate role of employee assistance programs (EAPs) might be, with attention to their contributions to the prevention of alcohol and other drug (AOD) problems. The principal contribution to the cost-effectiveness of EAPs in dealing with mental health problems, especially alcoholism and other drug dependence is through prevention. EAPs are important components of comprehensive worksite AOD abuse prevention programs. Their effectiveness can be demonstrated in reducing chronic heavy drinking as the focus of socializing and recreation, and in providing increased social support and respect for the recovering alcoholic and other drug-dependent coworker. Stemming indirectly from the EAP's presence and impact, employers, employees, and the family and community at large can become more thoughtful, reasonable, and careful about the use and abuse of alcohol and other drugs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Address to the Conference on Employee Mental Wellness by Walter B. Wriston, Chairman, Citicorp The mental well-being of employees is a subject of fundamental importance to each of us, our companies, our professions, and the nation. Both the Washington Business Group on Health and Boston University's Center for Industry and Health Care should be commended for the timely initiative this conference represents. I hope it will be come an ongoing effort to improve the mental health services to the nation's private sector workers and their dependents. I have had a deep interest in the delivery of health care for a long time, both from the perspective of a major employer and from my participation in the governance of New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center. It has also been my privilege to chair the Business Round table's Task Force on Health and to serve on the President's Labor Management Committee which, among other things, has been working on heaith care problems. This experience obviously does not give me any claim to special expertise on the issue of mental health. It may prove helpful, however, as we work together formulating our thoughts about the nation's health system, the role of industry, and where the mental health issue fits into the picture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Ergonomics, grade: 1,0, University of Nottingham, language: English, abstract: An Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) is a service that companies can make use of to provide information and support to their employees to help solve a variety of personal and work-related issues that may affect work and therefore their performance. This paper describes the benefits, costs and outcomes of an EAP, the lack of valid research underpinning its efficiency and the factors that organisations need to consider when introducing an EAP. It is unequivocal that work has a big influence on employees. Unfortunately, this influence can both be positive and negative (Teasdale, 2006). To help prevent and limit any effects that might reduce performance or have other undesirable impacts on the employees and the business, a company can offer various services for employees to handle stress and other psychological disturbances. Companies can therefore implement some kind of workplace counselling, which offers a confidential place to speak about issues with a trained therapist. One type of counselling is the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP), a strategic service for employers to provide support to their workforce. First, this paper is going to explain what an EAP exactly is and what services are offered. Then the benefits and reasons for implementing an EAP will be shown. Afterwards, the costs and possible doubts are described and brought into relation with the advantages in order to show if the model is useful and worth its costs. Finally, a guideline for factors to consider when implementing an EAP is given.
