The fact is, mental health issues in your workplace are already costing you.

Some of these costs are visible, e.g. WorkCover claims, employee retention, and absenteeism. However, the biggest drain on your bottom-line comes from the less visible impacts of poor mental wellbeing; e.g. low employee engagement, sub-par employee productivity, poor communication, burnout, and presenteeism.

By focusing on systemic prevention and empowering staff to take charge of their own wellbeing, we have shown that our approach saves employers money and delivers a return on investment far greater than the old crisis-driven model of workplace mental health.

You're right to be skeptical. Old-style EAPs that just react to problems once they've occurred have been shown to deliver little value. They can even harm your reputation as an employer if staff have a bad experience.

In contrast, our proactive approach flips this on its head by putting in place upstream and downstream measures.

Several of our clients have reported to us that they've saved hundreds of thousands of dollars in recent years thanks to our work.

Intuitively, we all understand that 'an ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure', but it's not always obvious that it will pay off. It's this kind of rationalising that stops people from quitting smoking, saving for a rainy day, or going to the doctor.

Instead, people and businesses tend to ignore the risk and hope they just get lucky. But luck isn't a strategy, and sooner or later it runs out.

Smart leaders know this and move to control the risk. If that sounds like you, then we can work together.

The reality is, you will never know unless you test it. That's why we encourage you to trial it for a few months, without any lock-in contracts or upfront fees.

Give us a call and let's make it happen.

Maybe you are. Then again, do you really know the value your current EAP provider is bringing to your business and how it compares to our approach?

To put it in perspective, our clients typically see more EAP utilisation within the first few months than they have in the previous few years. More importantly, staff engage earlier instead of waiting until they're in crisis. That means less downtime for business and improved mental wellbeing outcomes for staff.

It’s not magic. It’s because we understand that people only open up to others when there is trust and respect. That is why we focus on providing an outstanding experience from the first time an employee makes contact, right through to wellbeing follow-ups after counseling has finished.

Our clients don't only reap the benefits from an increase in employees reaching out to Allos. Our approach, working with our clients to proactively design and offer ways to provide the right support at the right time, means that businesses don't feel that they have to carry the toll on their own when things get tough.

When it comes to navigating through the hardest moments of life, don't you want to know you have an EAP provider who cares and goes the extra mile?

We take all the headache out of rolling out a program in your workplace so you can get on with running your business.

We will have your services up and running within a week. Then we deliver a program launch to staff in which we break down the stigma around mental health, explain what an EAP session is like and why it’s so much better to be proactive about using the service.

Throughout the year we will regularly visit your staff and management; building rapport and learning the unique dynamics of your business. Through this, employees gain confidence in the fact that behind the Allos Australia name is a team of passionate and caring professionals whom they can turn to in times of need.

We offer quarterly reports and analysis that provide actionable advice for your business.

Having an EAP is not a legal requirement, however, every Australian company is bound by law to provide a safe and healthy working environment. This includes both physical and mental health.

So, investing in employee mental health does reduce your legal risks, but approaching it as just a ‘tick the box’ compliance issue misses an important opportunity, which is; a psychologically fit workforce gives your business a competitive advantage through improved employee productivity, team collaboration, innovation and organisational reputation.

Given the wide-spread prevalence of mental health issues in society, it’s practically impossible that your business is not already being affected.

In fact, that ‘silence’ should be a wake up call for management to take action. Substance abuse and suicidal ideation are prime examples of things we hide from even our families. What chance do you think there is that a staff member will reveal this to their boss or human resources?

Whatever support we organise for your business, it is 100% confidential and delivered by experts. That means everyone in your organisation (including leaders and HR professionals) will have a private, caring, and impartial person to help them navigate the challenges they face.

Alongside this, we will help you develop a culture that is proactive and supportive of employee wellness and resilience.
