- Employee assistance program
An increasing number of employees simply do not know how to cope with their day-to-day concerns, which adversely affects their well-being and work performance. With the Employee Assistance Program, you offer employees and their family members emotional, physical and practical support around the clock.
Port in a storm
When you can’t stop your mind racing with anxious thoughts, it can take a heavy toll both professionally and personally. And you can’t just switch off this psychological anxiety, which means you inevitably take work issues home with you and vice versa. We are well aware that healthy and happy employees are an organisation’s most important asset. With the Employee Assistance Program, you provide a sympathetic ear and a helping hand through any kind of significant event.
The right solution: at all times and for everyone
Whether it's troublesome adolescents, financial issues, relationship problems with your partner, health issues or a difficult move: the Employee Assistance Program offers employees and their family members 24/7/365 access to emotional, physical and practical support. The service takes a preventive and curative approach to well-being. Users benefit from an integral approach tailored to each person's unique situation and personality.
Customised support
Support
Employees and their family members can contact a network of qualified psychologists 24/7/365, by phone, chat, text message, e-mail or the iConnectYou app. They don’t have to worry about long waiting times or call centres: users have direct contact with an impartial expert who assists them personally.
During the initial interaction, psychologists offer insights to reduce stress. Is a follow-up process recommended? If so, users receive individual support remotely or from a psychologist in their area.
Unburden
Experts advise and support workers with everyday and complex concerns. This way, users experience less stress and can focus on what really matters.
Practical issues
Are employees looking for elderly or child care? Do they like to compare the different services of household helpers in the area? Does a busy family member want to find the right removal company, but doesn’t have the time? Experts seek the answer to every practical issue.
Legal and financial consultation
Do employees want additional tips on how to best manage their finances? Do they like to discover how their savings yield the best returns? Is a family member considering retirement, but do they still have some questions? Legal-financial experts offer expert advice during a telephone interview.
Promote growth
Do employees want to take the initiative and use handy tips and tricks to improve their mental and physical well-being? Certified coaches and experts are ready to help them do so.
Life coaching
A private coach supports employees by phone in their personal and professional growth. Consider, for example, career development, dealing with change or a good work-life balance.
AWARE mindfulness coaching
During telephone sessions, employees learn techniques to manage stress more effectively, enhancing their well-being and concentration.
Manager Assist
HR, managers and team leaders can contact the expert network by phone or video chat for unlimited and independent advice.
