What is an EAP?

The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides assessment, short-term counseling, referral and follow-up services to assist employees and their families in solving personal problems. Some of the most frequently identified problems include emotional and personal conflicts, grief and loss, parenting, family blending, legal problems, work performance issues, marital conflicts, managing stress and change, anxiety and depression, financial problems, and addiction problems (gambling, alcohol and drug abuse).

Who is Eligible?

All full-time employees and their immediate family members are eligible to participate in the EAP from the date of hire. Immediate family is defined as legal spouse, legal children, step-children, and foster children. The City of Henderson offers Employee Assistance Programs for those employees covered under the Teamsters Local 14 and employees in non-represented and Police/Fire contracted positions.
