7.1. EAP (Employee Assistance Program)and Wellness Services
Rationale:
An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a free and confidential service for you and your family. It provides individual, marriage, family and group counseling. This benefit provides five sessions to the employee and their family members. Knowing that life happens and that this can, at times, affect your personal, family and/or work life, this benefit is provided to help you. It could be a loss of a loved one, a difficult time in your marriage, a family concern, addiction issues, depression, stress or anxiety, among many other things. Not only would you be offered traditional counseling, you would also have the opportunity to use your sessions for holistic – wellness services. This includes hypnotherapy, individual and group. Group hypnotherapy would be offered for Smoking Cessation and Weight Loss. Other alternative services include neurobiofeedback (brain training), sessions in a Migun Massage Facility and/or in the Energy Enhancement System. Results from Staff Survey Contracted for one year. Cost for district is based on census of employees @ $35.00 per employee. Consideration to determine employee eligibility Current employees full-time status--135 Overall number of staff--152 |
