Employee Assistance Program
Pathways Counselling & Family Services offers an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to businesses, corporations and organisations that provides counselling and coaching support to address personal, professional and work and life balance issues.
Personal problems can have a serious effect on the work performance and safety of staff members, colleagues, and clients. Although not work-related, marital conflicts, family violence, bereavement, supporting family members who have a chronic illness, alcohol or drug problems or financial and legal concerns, can all impact on a person’s work performance and as a result directly impact on the safety and productivity of a workplace. The service is confidential and cost-effective.
