Who is eligible?

Will I have to pay to use EAP?
No. EAP services are free to employees, their spouses and dependents. Employees have five free EAP sessions per year with Access Wellness.
Will my boss or other people at work know I am using EAP?
No. An employee's voluntary use of the EAP is strictly confidential. An employee's personal information is not shared with their employer or anyone else.
