The purpose of an EAP is to provide a quality benefit to the employee, while containing insurance costs through early intervention and prevention. Job performance and satisfaction are dependent upon an employee's physical and emotional well-being. Businesses understand that anything impacting the employee's health will have a direct effect on job performance. EAPs have demonstrated effectiveness in reducing the impact of depression and substance abuse in the workplace, as well as decreasing absenteeism due to personal difficulties and illness.
