Morneau Shepell’s My EAP app has been named “Innovation of the Year” by the Employee Assistance European Forum (EAEF).
The mobile device application, which is offered through the company’s Shepell•fgi brand, provides users with health and wellness information, interactive wellness tools and the ability to connect with counsellors on issues that impact their health and work/life balance. It’s available for download on Apple, RIM and Android devices.
The award, delivered at EAEF’s annual conference in Athens, Greece, on June 15, honours organizations and people for innovative products or services in employee assistance program delivery or practice.
“We are very grateful to be recognized by the leading authority on employee assistance in Europe,” said Stephen Liptrap, executive vice-president of Morneau Shepell and general manager with Shepell•fgi. “My EAP is continuing to break down the barriers associated with location. It offers immediate and confidential help 24/7 to those who need it.”
