Focus on the Emerging BusinessEmerging businesses are dynamic entrepreneurial organizations with less than 1000 employees. They represent a tremendous asset to our community, the overall business environment, and our economy. Unfortunately, emerging businesses have traditionally been under-serviced by EAP providers. Wellplace realizes emerging businesses can greatly benefit from offering EAP services to their employees. We have tailored our programs to meet the needs of these organizations. 87% of Fortune 500 companies offer EAPs. These firms long ago realized the financial and human resource benefits of offering an EAP. Wellplace believes emerging businesses should not be shut out of providing an equal or superior benefit to its employees. A Wellplace facilited EAP program can be a valuable part of an emerging business benefits package. A comprehensive benefits program is one feather in the cap that helps the emerging business compete for and retain talented employees. Employee “down time” has a greater potential to adversely effect the emerging business than many larger firms. One employee represents a greater percentage of the emerging business’s total work force. If that employee is not working to his or her full potential the entire firm may be adversely effected. Wellplace has the most comprehensive package of EAP services available for emerging businesses – total program costs are often less than what many firms spend on coffee, cups, pens, or note pads. What does the emerging business get in return?
