...because you are valued as a person,

as well as an employee.




Two signs of an employee in distress are a decrease in his or her productivity and an increase in disruptive behavior. Even temporary distress can produce significant negative effects on an employee's performance and a company's profits.

Employers from all over Douglas County have decided to protect their investment in employees by subscribing to the Mercy Employee Assistance Service-WorkLife Program. The EAS-WorkLife Program is a cost-containment management tool that supervisors use to respond to troubled employees and maximize staff productivity. However, the service also represents a direct benefit for employees and members of their household.

For employers, the EAS-WorkLife Program provides consultation on developing alcohol/drug policies; management approaches to employees experiencing personal problems that can impact their job performance; and numerous other services.

For employees, the EAS-WorkLife Program
provides professional counseling to help prevent personal problems from becoming on-the-job performance problems. Short-term services are available for employees and household members who are experiencing "emotional health" or "practical" life problems. Personal problems can easily affect the employee's: quality of life, health or job performance. Examples of "emotional health" issues clients seek service for are: depression, anxiety, chemical dependency, grief-loss, and anger control. Examples of "practical" life problems the WorkLife Program clients ask for help with are: balancing the demands of work and their personal lives, child care, elder care, financial-family budgeting, housing-food assistance, legal, and consumer complaints.
