TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- LifeWorks, a global leader in digital and in-person wellbeing solutions, announced today the launch of Mental Health Benefits Connect. As Canadians continue to struggle with their mental health, more organizations are recognizing the need to provide their employees with options to access continued, consistent wellbeing support. Mental Health Benefits Connect is a program that ensures seamless access to ongoing, specialized and high-quality clinical services that go beyond the support millions of Canadians rely on through their employee and family assistance program (EFAP).
Key features include:
Mental Health Benefits Connect is available for employees with access to the LifeWorks EFAP through their organization.
Comments from president and chief executive officer, Stephen Liptrap
"As more people seek mental-health support than ever before, we are seeing confusion regarding where to turn for help, as well as a concern about determining who offers high-quality mental-health support in the community. At the same time, we know that organizations want to ensure the best support for their people, now more than ever. Through Mental Health Benefits Connect, we are breaking down the barriers of access to care by offering a seamless link between EFAP and appropriate ongoing therapy through benefits plans. We see this as simplifying access to the type and level of support needed, which is essential to employees' health, productivity and quality and life."
