Sometimes our problems become too much for us to handle and they affect our personal happiness, our family relations, our performance at work and even our physical health. When this occurs, we often need professional guidance. Without proper attention, these problems usually become worse and the consequences are often unpleasant and expensive. The employee may initiate the request for assistance. Simply call 305.348.2469 and an appointment will be arranged.
Services are confidential.
The discussion of the issues facing you or your family member is strictly between you and the employee assistance professional. Neither the University nor your co-workers will know of your request for help. The OEA keeps all client information in a secure place. No information about your visit is shared with Human Resources or any other University Department, without a specific, written release. Your supervisor may encourage the use of the Office of Employee Assistance when a performance problem occurs, in order to help you determine if personal problems may be interfering with your job.
