The Purpose of an Employee Assistance Program
 

The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a program available to help you and your family find the means to resolve personal problems. By offerings this free and confidential program, we hope employees will be encouraged to ask for help during these difficult times.

EAP Guildlines
 
  • Your use of EAP services is voluntary.
  • Your use of EAP services will not violate your personal privacy. Strict confidentiality measures are used in every phase of the program. (You may remain completely anonymous during your phone call.)
  • Your use of EAP services will not jeopardize your employment status, job security, and opportunities for promotion.
  • Your use of EAP services will not alter your responsibilities under your employer's personnel policies. You will continue to be subject to disciplinary action should you violate these personnel policies.
How to Use the EAP
 

Employees and Your Families

You may confidentially contact HELPLINE, a service of Heitzinger & Associates, for initial problem assessment and possible referral to a professional service provider. There is no charge for your use of the HELPLINE services.

A qualified counselor will discuss the situation with you by telephone or by scheduling an appointment for an individual session. It is your decision whether or not to accept and follow through with the counselor's suggestions.
