Employee Assistance Programme

A confidential support service offering employees counselling and practical help.

Full Definition

An Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) is a confidential, employer-funded benefit that provides employees with free access to professional support services — including counselling, mental health support, legal advice, financial guidance, and debt management. EAPs help employees deal with personal and work-related issues that may affect their performance and wellbeing. Research shows EAPs reduce absenteeism, improve productivity, and demonstrate that the employer cares about employee wellbeing.
