Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) An EAP provides 24/7 confidential advice and support to employees and dependants on a wide range of work, family and personal issues, including workplace pressure, stress, anxiety and depression, marital, family and relationship issues and bereavement and loss. The telephone-based services are often backed up with face-to-face counselling sessions, when required.

Health Assessments An annual health assessment will normally include the completion of a lifestyle questionnaire, followed by a series of tests and examinations, providing an evaluation of the employee’s current state of health. The employee will receive a detailed report and advice for improving or maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Telephone follow-ups from health professionals will provide encouragement in the weeks and months after the assessment.

Health Cash Plans Cash plans provide an affordable way to pay for everyday health bills such as dental, optical, complementary therapies and physiotherapy. Some also cover prescription charges and annual health checks.

Dental Insurance Dental insurance plans allow employees to claim for the cost of routine dental treatment, including check-ups, scale and polish, x-rays, fillings, root canals and crowns. Emergency dental treatment is also often covered.

Private Medical Insurance Arguably one of the most popular staff benefits, private medical insurance provides cover for outpatient consultations and diagnostic tests, in-patient and day case treatment. The cover helps your employees get treated rapidly and back to work as quickly as possible.
