INDEPENDENT OUTCOME STUDIES

Outcome measurement is the single most powerful tool in the value proposition of employee assistance and mental health services

The capacity to provide independent, objective and credible evidence of impact maximizes the application of findings into business practice. 

EAPs and mental health service providers

While many EAP and mental health service providers MAY already have an outcome measurement strategy in place, most have not commissioned a comprehensive independent study.  Workreach developed a unique methodology allowing for the first time the incorporation of a control group in an external EAP study, as published in a peer-reviewed study  This method can be deployed for other employee assistance and mental health services.

Independent outcome study
