Employee Assistance Program
Sometimes all you need to
do is talk it over. A professional counselor can help. For these situations,
just a few visits can get you back on your feet again.
The
Employee
Assistance
Program (EAP)
is a short-term counseling and consultation service, which is offered
free
to International employees and their eligible family members.
The
EAP can help you cope with personal problems on a
confidential
basis. All counseling services are administered through Optum Health,
which is a separate entity from our health insurance providers.
No information on individual employee EAP use is shared with
International management, unless the employee expressly asks for this to be
done, and signs a release to this effect (in matters of addressing employee
misconduct, for example).
Just
talk to our UAW EAP coordinator; you may
discuss your situation confidentially and privately, and they will find an
appropriate local provider for your needs.
(Or, alternatively, you may call the administrator of our program, Optum Health at 1-800-977-7909, and they will find a local provider in
their database.)
You do not have to wait for a crisis to call the EAP.
Sometimes the best time to call is when you just need to talk to someone, before
a problem becomes severe or overwhelming.
The EAP provides assistance for a range of issues,
including:
The UAW EAP Coordinator also has reference material, available to copy
or borrow, on various issues including but not limited to:
substance abuse, stress and anxiety, workplace and domestic violence, and
verbal abuse. |
