Employees at work sometimes are having the toughest time either personally or professionally that has diverse effects on performance at work. An employee could have different problems ranging from financial losses, addiction or even stress at work. These problems not only differ in nature but also in the degree to which they can cause distress to an individual. A troubled mind not impacts one particular person’s work but also negatively affects the whole team’s productivity and morale. EAPs provide support to an employee at the initial times of stress before it can turn into something more serious.
