Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Close the mental health gap for employees with EAP
Employees are looking to their employers to provide programs for mental health support. According to NAMI, the data shows that many workers crave information about the mental health resources available to them.
How we can help
Through our partnership with ComPsych®, we offer a three-tiered Employee Assistance Program (EAP) called EAP By DesignSM. Each tier provides employers and employees access to services that address personal life challenges and improve workplace productivity and performance. You choose which is best for you and your employees.
EAP programs are available with Sun Life group disability and life products.
EAP services are different if the situs state is New York. In New York, EAP is only available with a group disability income policy. For NY-specific EAP details, please contact your sales representative.
