When people struggle with stress, it affects not only them but their families – and their work too.
From an employer’s perspective, it makes sense to support people who are finding it difficult to cope with the pressure that everyday life brings. That may well mean time off work, which then begins to impact on colleagues and the business as a whole.
Helping to free people from what is bothering them is therefore not just good for them, but by helping reduce absenteeism is good for the business too.

Often people won’t want to talk; the subject matter can be delicate, or they’re reluctant to share with others that they are struggling with the mental health. But employees are also people first, and our Emotional Counsellors know that the sooner the problem is addressed, the sooner they’re going to be able to turn things around.
And often those troubles are minor, and can be dealt with quickly. Which is why our online portal is there for people who just need access to information without necessarily speaking to anyone, a resource to address their concerns until such a time that they need further help. And if and when they do, our qualified counselling team offers a personal, confidential and robust system of support to all your employees, and their families too.
Sometimes the problems run deeper and are an early sign that things could become worse if they are not handled in a timely and professional manner. That’s where out Emotional Counsellors help too, providing round-the-clock support and putting in place strategies to help your employees achieve the right work-life balance, whatever the problem.
If it’s money that’s at the root of their troubles, then our 24/7 helpline offers advice and solutions to financial concerns as well as legal matters. Which offers peace of mind, reassurance and encouragement to the employee, and to the wider business too.
