Every
employee will have a personal problem that affects job
performance at least once in a career. Some employees have
chronic problems. Personal problems of employees
cost America's industries billions of dollars
a year.
When there are troubled employees,
there is trouble for the company. Many employee problems are a
result of drug or alcohol abuse, and even more employees have
financial, legal or emotional problems related to broken
relationships which are serious enough to impair job
performance. When there are troubled employees, there is
increased absenteeism, increased health care costs, more accidents
on the job and more grievances filed.  LifePlan has three decades
of experience in providing high quality Employee Assistance Programs
(EAPs) to organizations in Northeast
Indiana as well as throughout the United
States. The LifePlan EAP is an effective tool in
enabling business to do what it does best--manage
business. As an independent agency, LifePlan
offers confidential referral and short-term counseling
for employees with any personal problems, thus stopping the drain on
productivity. In addition, confidential assistance is offered
to family members because problems within a family can hurt
individuals well beyond the home. Issues
related to substance abuse, relational problems, depressive
illnesses, financial problems, legal problems and more are
covered by our trained staff of professionals.
LifePlan focuses on early intervention, thus preventing the
progression of these problems.
Organizations which contract with the
LifePlan EAP discover numerous benefits to their bottom
line. The cost benefit of LifePlan employee assistance
and behavioral management services can be significant:
Savings - through the
prevention of lost workplace productivity (related to absenteeism,
tardiness, accidents, etc)
Savings - through the
prevention of increased health care rates (related to lack of a gate
keeper).
Savings - by
salvaging valuable employees and avoidance of new hiring/ new
training expenditures.
Savings - by reducing other
behavioral risks
Savings - by reducing
employment practice liability risks
It's
clear that the LifePlan EAP which is guided by a
preventative and proactive model for
assisting employees with personal difficulties provides for a
greater likelihood of problem resolution. Early intervention
is key. By becoming a part of the culture of an organization
through onsite office hours (where requested), trainings,
visitations and other promotions, employees become alert to the
services offered by the LifePlan EAP...and are more apt to seek out
help when the need arises. LifePlan truly becomes a part of
the culture of an organization...in a way that many EAPs do not.
LifePlan's Employee
Assistance Programs offer the most service at the most affordable
rates in Northeast Indiana. We tailor our programs to meet the
needs of each individual company, providing the best quality of
service. |
