Support Employee Wellbeing with a Comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)

At Valentine Occupational Health, we deliver professionally managed Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs) that are fully aligned with your wider occupational health strategy. By sourcing your EAP through an experienced OH provider, you ensure a more integrated, effective approach to employee wellbeing.

Whether you have 10 employees or 10,000, our EAP supports psychological, emotional and practical wellbeing, helping to reduce stress, lower absence rates and promote a more resilient workforce.

What is an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)?

An EAP is a confidential support service that helps employees manage personal or work-related issues that may affect their health, wellbeing or job performance. These may include stress, anxiety, depression, family issues, financial concerns or workplace conflict.

Our EAP service offers:

• Free, confidential advice and support
• Short-term counselling (telephone or face-to-face)
• 24/7 access to professional guidance
• Support for both employees and managers

Why Choose an EAP Through Occupational Health?

As a specialist OH provider, we understand how mental health, physical health and work are deeply connected. By organising your EAP through Valentine OH, you gain a more joined-up approach. We ensure effective signposting between occupational health services and EAP support, and our clinicians can identify when EAP intervention is appropriate as part of a wider health and work conversation.

We also recognise that simply having an EAP in place is not enough. Success depends on how well it is introduced and embedded. That’s why we support your organisation with EAP promotion, engagement and ongoing communication to encourage usage, reduce stigma and maximise impact.
