One of the actions in our Fulton Hogan Mental Health Strategy 2020-2025 (Australia) was to review Employee Assistance Program (EAP) providers in the market place, along with our existing EAP partner organisation, OZ Help, to determine the best fit for our people going forward. Over the past couple of months our National Mental Health Steering Committee has undertaken a rigorous market review of EAP providers. As a result of this process we are pleased to announce that from today our new EAP provider is Assure Programs.
What is an EAP provider?
An EAP provider is an external company engaged by Fulton Hogan to help maintain the wellbeing and positive mental health of our employees and their close family members, by providing confidential counselling services for those dealing with personal and work-related problems.

Why Assure Programs?
There are many reasons that Assure Programs was chosen as our new EAP provider, these include:
-
- Multiple contact methods for anyone experiencing difficulties – including SMS (counselling via text), phone, video call and face-to-face counselling
- All counsellors are qualified psychologists with minimum of five years’ experience
- Geographic coverage – well represented across Australia including regional and remote areas
- Understand our industry with a portfolio of large construction and Government clients
- Strong crisis management response
