A programme to help employees in all aspects of their lives is our Employee Assistance Programme (EAP). Provided by an external partner, this confidential tool supports employees and their families who have personal problems that might adversely impact their work performance, health and wellbeing. These might range from mental and physical issues to social and financial difficulties. EAP offers a 24/7 online help point in multiple languages as well as telephone advice with local consultants. It was fully rolled out in 2021.
