ANDOUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE FROM: Joyce A. Parker, City Manager SUBJECT: Employee Assistance Program PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to recommend the renewal of the City' s Employee Assistance Program (EAP) contract with Provena Saint Joseph Hospital . BACKGROUND The Employee Assistance Program was initiated for the benefit of employees in July of 1982 . The program has helped many employees and their families with problems related to depression, anxiety, substance abuse, family/relationship issues, stress, legal, financial and other life problems . Requests for proposal for the Employee Assistance Program were sent out in May to three known providers of the services in our area, Provena Saint Joseph Hospital, Employee Assistance Services and Employee Resource Centers . Only Provena Saint Joseph Hospital submitted a proposal . This proposal asks for a $1 . 50 per employee increase in rate (from $16. 50 to $18 . 00) for a four-year contract . This increase is reasonable, however, when compared to the rate charged ($18 . 50 to $30 . 00) by Provena Saint Joseph Hospital to other municipalities and businesses for which it provides EAP services . COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None . • V . Employee Assistance Services June 20, 2000 Page 2 FINANCIAL IMPACT Renewal of the EAP contract with Provena Saint Joseph Hospital will cost the City approximately $10, 800 (600 employees x $18 . 00) for each year of the four-year contract . This cost is charged to the non-departmental budget under "Miscellaneous Professional Services" , account number 010-6902-719 . 30-99 . LEGAL IMPACT WWNone . ALTERNATIVES The City could renew the EAP contract with Provena Saint Joseph Hospital or discontinue the program.
