Why an EAP?

The last thing that you want is another business expense. But when it comes to employee wellness, the benefits far exceed the expense. If left untreated, work-related stresses and personal difficulties – such as depression, anxiety, and substance abuse – can have a devastating impact on your business. It is estimated that these factors cost the Canadian economy over 11.1 billion dollars a year in lost productivity. The only way to effectively combat this threat to productivity is through the promotion of employee health and wellness.

At Workplace Health Services we believe that “A Healthy Business Starts with Healthy Employees” which is why our program was developed to assist organizations in:
