Abstract

Outcomes of employee assistance program (EAP) clients were compared between three commonly used services: (1) telephone counselors, (2) in-person counselors and (3) legal/financial consultants. Tests of follow-up survey data (N = 3,200) from a national EAP provider (Optum) showed high levels of health and workplace outcomes for all three study groups. Measures included the EAP users's self-reported levels of following the care plan, clinical effectiveness, client satisfaction, and improvements in stress, health and well-being, work productivity and work absence.
