Competent, reliable employees are essential to a company’s success. When your employees have health problems, financial worries, drug & alcohol issues or other personal problems, their job performance -- and your company’s profitability -- can suffer. You can minimize or prevent these adverse effects by offering an employee assistance program (EAP).

An EAP is an early-intervention program that helps detect and resolve problems quickly, before they become severe. According to the U. S. Department of Labor, employers usually save between $5 and $16 for every $1 that they invest in an EAP (What Works: Workplaces Without Drugs, 1990, p. 17).  We are currently involved with a substance abuse program with a national company that is showing over a 70% success rate.  Ask us about it.

Life Changes EAP offers confidential, face-to-face meetings with trained counselors, as well as convenient access to EAP services online or by telephone. In addition to our staff of counselors, we contract with independent counselors, ensuring that we always have the local resources to meet your needs. Counselors are on call 24 hours a day and can provide prompt emergency response when needed with a live counselor and not a answering machine or extensions.

Life Changes EAP provides the following standard and optional services:

  • Counseling for your employees and their families
  • Drug-free workplace (DFW) programs
  • Compliance with Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements
  • SAP (substance-abuse professional) services (DOT evaluations) required for positive drug screens
  • Free Legal consultations and referrals
  • Easy, low-cost will preparation
  • Financial counseling
  • Reduced rates for family mediation services
  • Special programs on a variety of topics, including stress management, workplace violence, sexual harassment, change management, and more.

All companies -- no matter how large or small -- can benefit from having an EAP. Whether your company has only one office or has facilities worldwide, we can be your single source for all of the employee assistance services that you need. Even if your company already has one or more EAP's in place at some of your locations, you can choose Life Changes' comprehensive program as your primary EAP, and we will oversee the services that your other EAP's provide.

Some companies offer high tech but low touch programs, we offer high touch with comprehensive tech programs that brings a balance program for your company.
