Provide counselling for others
Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
If you run a small or medium size local business, then why not consider using Anglicare for your EAP? All you need to do is let us know how many counselling sessions you’ll provide (per staff member) within a given timeframe… then Anglicare will simply invoice you when a session takes place.
Support for staff wellbeing can contribute to reduced rates of absenteeism and higher levels of productivity. But more importantly, supporting your employees to improve their mental health is a wonderful way to show your genuine care.
How will my EAP service work?
Step 1
You’ll enter into a no-obligation contract with Anglicare for the provision of EAP services. Decide how many counselling sessions an employee can access in a given time period (the most common is three to six sessions per year).
Step 2
When you choose Anglicare for your Employee Assistance Program, your staff will receive priority access to counselling for the agreed number of sessions. Your employees can book a session with a counsellor in their area (or a phone or online session) by contacting Anglicare directly.
Step 3
Anglicare will invoice you once the session is complete. Your invoice will include the nature of the services provided, without disclosing the details of the employee who received the counselling.
Step 4
In the event of a critical incident at your workplace, an Anglicare Counselling Manager can discuss the best approach for supporting your team. This may include onsite debriefing, manager support and follow up.
Step 5
Should you need, workplace mediation can be provided by an accredited mediator to assist managers and staff, or co-workers to resolve workplace related issues or challenges that have become problematic.
