Our Research
Given the prevalence and effect of poor employee mental and physical health on Canadian businesses, we’ve made significant investments in independent research to assess the value and impact of member assistance programs. Not only is it the right thing to do, it also helps to ensure our solutions are driven from evidence-based outcome research.
Through the data, we’ve seen time and again the significant return on investment in assistance programs, including improved health and productivity outcomes, increased engagement and savings across other lines of benefits.
Read about some of our research below, and see first hand the impact of assistance programs on Canadian businesses and their employees.
