Employee Assistance Programs, when done correctly, can help you support your employee’s health and wellbeing.
In HRchat episode 594, I talk with Dr. Jonas Eyford, CEO of Recharge Wellness, a company offering custom wellness programs for organizations across Canada. The firm provides an employee support service (to enhance or replace an EFAP), on-site clinics, and wellness webinars.
In late 2022, Jonas and his team made a major upgrade by launching a disruptive EAP which, he says, is “set out to fracture the stale reality of poor engagement with a wholly different approach to EAPs & mental health.”
Questions for Jonas include:
- In terms of mental and physical health, how much harm did the pandemic do to the wellbeing of today’s employees?
- Tell us about the new Employee Assistance Programme from your team and why it’s unique.
- What HR processes need to be in place to support EAPs?
- What about HR leaders? Do they get enough support?
- Why is the use of mental health benefits consistently lower in older generations?
- Does the EAP industry need disruption? If so, why?
