Service programs like Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) are indeed labor-intensive and can be expensive to maintain. They often end up being underutilized for various reasons, including lack of awareness among employees or stigma associated with seeking help. Additionally, while they do offer preventive measures, a significant focus remains on remediation, addressing issues after they have already impacted the employee.
