Overview

Some workers’ comp carriers recognize that addressing an injured worker’s stress can speed up recovery, but not all provide a holistic approach. Integrating an employee assistance program (EAP) into a workers’ comp program supports total worker health after—and before—an injury.

Workplace injuries cause stress for employees in multiple ways. There’s the physical pain of the injury and the discomfort of the recovery process. Then there’s frustration surrounding limitations on physical function. Finally, depending on the severity of the injury, there may be fear about whether a return to baseline function is even possible.

The value of an EAP for your employees

• 83% of workers suffer from work-related stress.
• Absenteeism rates are 27% lower among companies that offer EAPs.
• For every $1 spent on mental health concerns, employers see a $4 return on productivity gains
