Employee assistance program training

"BEHIND THE LOOKING GLASS":
BROAD-BRUSH E.A.P. TRAINING

"Behind the Looking Glass" takes on the difficult task of defining "broad-brush" Employee Assistance Programs, and illustrates their importance in dealing with the various problems that inhibit job-performance (alcohol and other drugs, financial, legal, mental, etc.). This theatrical presentation combines factual information with comedic and dramatic scenes to empower "troubled" employees in seeking the help that is available.

This presentation also available on Video!

Scenes Included in the Program:

TROUBLED WORKER BLUES
This blues parody opens the program on a humorous note. A Staff-Supervisor, swamped in a dysfunctional workforce, sings the blues about poor safety records, absenteeism, and a black market for drug-free urine.

SYMPTOMATIC SHUFFLE
If someone is so depressed he is losing his hair, does Rogaine solve the problem? This scene dramatizes how certain individuals choose to treat the symptoms while leaving the root cause to fester.

END OF THE LINE
One co-worker boosts a buddy's productivity by offering the "cocaine advantage". Suddenly, the company adopts a mandatory drug testing policy and the chase is on!

THE INTIMATE JAILER
Studies have shown that domestic violence issues have become a significant percentage of EAP caseloads. This scene effectively illustrates how productivity suffers when life at home has soured.

I DON'T WANNA WORK
Sexual Harassment on the job creates a hostile environment and reduces productivity. One employee, frustrated by the changing roles of women and standards of behavior in the workplace, bemoans how it "takes the fun out of a man's work".

NOTHING PERSONAL
Downsizing, Rightsizing, or whatever they are calling it this week, has a huge emotional impact on those who are let go, and those who remain. This dramatic monologue examines the mind of an individual who feels mistreated and now brings his irrational thoughts and a weapon to work.

ALTERNATIVES
A supervisor uses "supportive confrontation" in encouraging a troubled employee's participation in the company's EAP.

BRAD IS BACK
The characters from "End of the Line" reappear to illustrate the fears and anxieties experienced by someone returning to work after treatment.

IT'S ON THE RECEIPT
The character in this closing monologue recounts the uplifting results of going to the EAP for help. This narrative further illustrates the effectiveness of these programs in dealing with delicate situations.
