Why does LaRC have an EAP Program?
Employees are our organization’s most important resource. LaRC elected to establish an EAP due to the concern about employees and their job performance. The Center also realizes that everyone experiences personal, family, or emotional difficulties, or encounters loss or illness at some point in their lives. In most instances, individuals are able to resolve these problems independently. However, sometimes these difficulties may be so intense, or may last so long, that personal happiness, family relations, health, and job performance are affected and outside help may be needed. The goal of the EAP program is to assist employees and their families in coping with problems that could result in serious deterioration of health, family life, and job performance.
