News Hires Firm
to Provide EAP Services
The Buffalo News has contracted with Employee Services to provide workers
and immediate family with an enhanced "Employee Assistance Program." EAP
recognizes that everyone who lives in our modern society is confronted with
stressful situations and setbacks that could be minimized with professional
assistance. This could be the result of marital conflicts, relationship
difficulties, family concerns, financial worries, or other unresolved issues.
EAP provides members direct confidential access to professional counselors
who will assist in determining the most appropriate course of action to
constructively address your problems.
| PROGRAM SERVICES:
An Employee Services Counselor is available to discuss your concerns or to establish an appointment with a counselor in the following areas:

USING THE PROGRAM
There is no cost for using the program. EAP has been prepaid by The News and counselors will explain specific coverage provided by the program when calls for service are received. NOTE: Referrals to professional providers outside of the Employee Assistance Program are not covered by this program. Be sure you understand the fees involved and coverage provided by your health insurance program. |
| CONFIDENTIALITY
Use of the program is confidential, no names, personal records or other information will be given to anyone without your written consent, except in cases of child abuse, a significant threat to the safety and well-being of self or others, or other applicable state and federal laws. |
