Workplace Support Services can help to enhance productivity, communication, team functioning and leadership skills, and reduce inefficiencies and ineffectiveness associated with unresolved stress, conflict and other issues affecting employee wellbeing and performance in the workplace.

Workplace Support Services, and in particular Employee Assistance Programs, are common offerings of Employers of Choice, enabling you to attract and retain high quality, effective and efficient employees, and supporting employees and workplaces to reach their potential.
We can tailor our services to meet the needs of workplaces and their employees, including the number of counselling sessions employees can access as part of an Employee Assistance Program, and whether services are available to employees only, or employees and their family members. We provide support to businesses, not-for-profit organisations, agencies, departments and services.
