Employee support that goes beyond a traditional EAP
HR Duo’s Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) combines everyday wellbeing support, 24/7 clinical care and short-term counselling in one connected service, helping employees access the right support earlier and giving employers better visibility of workforce wellbeing.

How is this different from a traditional EAP?
Traditional EAPs often centre on a helpline that employees contact when they actively decide to seek support.
HR Duo combines that clinical EAP service with everyday digital wellbeing tools, content, daily check-ins, Cara Wellbeing and care navigation. This gives employees more ways to engage with wellbeing support before, during and after they need professional intervention.
