Council approves employee assistance program coverage for three staff
Summary
Council approved an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) covering three nonunion staff members for an estimated $68.40 per year, with council discussion finding the cost modest and likely to provide value to employees.
Staff presented options for an Employee Assistance Program that would cover three nonunion staff members; staff said options ranged from roughly $34.20 to $68.40 per year for the three employees depending on the coverage level.
Councilors discussed the value relative to other benefits and agreed the cost was modest. One councilor called the coverage a “no brainer,” and another noted that if even one staff member used services it would pay for the policy. A motion to approve the EAP at an estimated cost of $68.40 per year for the three staff members passed on a recorded five‑zero vote.
Staff will implement coverage and confirm enrollment and billing details with the vendor and HR.
