Employee Assistance Programmes
The 2006 CIPD Annual Absence Management Survey reports stress as
being one of the top three reasons for absence, and that
stress-related absence is continuing to increase.4
Case histories, and The Management of Health and Safety at Work
Regulation 1992, show it is the legal responsibility of the
employer to ensure they assess the risk of stress within their own
organisation. The employer must endeavour to reduce its impact
within the workplace and failure to do so may result in prosecution
from either the Health and Safety Executive or the employees
themselves. These employer costs and liabilities can be reduced
significantly if stress in the workplace is addressed and
pro-actively managed.
The Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) offers:
- confidential advice
- 24hr 365 days per year
- face to face counseling service, for your employees and their
families
