Who is Public Safety EAP? |
PUBLIC SAFETY EAP is a confidential counseling service dedicated solely to providing employee assistance programs to public safety responders and their families. You are given the opportunity to resolve problems in an environment of strict privacy. The program is designed to assist in the identification and resolution of personal and behavioral issues that may adversely affect on-the-job performance.
The success of any employee assistance program is based on the level of trust you place in that program. Your employer receives no information which could identify your involvement with PUBLIC SAFETY EAP unless you authorize such disclosure in advance. Except for very specific situations involving the risk of physical harm, your contact with PUBLIC SAFETY EAP is not disclosed to anyone.
We currently serve thousands of sworn police officers, firefighters, civilian staff and their families. You may contact PUBLIC SAFETY EAP 24 hours a day. You will speak to a trained professional who will help you begin the process of finding solutions to whatever problem you may have. |
How it Works |
PUBLIC SAFETY EAP is available 24 hours a day. You can speak to an experienced case manager by calling toll-free (888) EAP-1060. You are not obligated to take any further action if you call. You need not even give your name.
Together you and your case manager will decided if you would benefit from meeting privately with a professional counselor to further explore your problem and develop solutions.
PUBLIC SAFETY EAP offices are conveniently located throughout the state. All our counselors are experienced professionals with a wide range of specializations. Each counselor is selected based on his or her sensitivity and understanding in dealing with personal problems. |
Cost |
| There is no cost or obligation for services rendered by PUBLIC SAFETY EAP. Your employer has underwritten this program as a benefit to you and your family. When a referral outside the employee assistance program is necessary, we do everything possible to maximize your insurance benefit and minimize the cost to you. |
Types of Referral |
A person calls PUBLIC SAFETY EAP because he or she wishes to confidentially discuss a personal problem and realizes that professional support might be helpful. This is called a self-referral.
If a manager or supervisor suggests an employee seek the counseling offered by PUBLIC SAFETY EAP, this is called a supervisory referral. The suggestion may be purely voluntary or it may be made in lieu of, or in addition to other disciplinary action. |
