When assessing the value of an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), it is important to note two different, but equally important, results for your employees and your company:
- Tangible results that enhance company productivity.
- Life-changing and life-saving intangible benefits.
Tangible Workforce Improvements
The outcomes of Employee Assistance Programs are direct and meaningful for your business, reduced absenteeism, increased productivity and increased health of employees. According to a recent study conducted by FEI Behavioral Health and nationally recognized EAP consultant Dr. Kirk Harlow, EAPs help companies achieve:
- 90% reduced absenteeism.
- 25% increase in employees reporting zero productivity loss.
- 10% increase in employees reporting very good or excellent health.
- 10% decrease in employees reporting fair or poor health.
FEI’s EAP services are proven to work in the above areas, and result in a solid return on investment—ranging from $5 to $16 back for every $1 invested.
