HDS supports employees through Employee Assistance Programme (EAP). Our counsellors can assist with a wide range of issues such as stress and anxiety, depression, bereavement or trauma related issues, for example.

They may also need some help working through issues in their personal life which can affect their performance at work. Speaking to a counsellor or therapist about the problem can feel like a huge step forward.
