Chaplaincy Versus EAP
Comparison of WCI workplace chaplaincy program with traditional employee assistance program (EAP)
In contrast to EAP programs, workplace chaplaincy is based on the pastoral care model which is informal in nature and based on regular face to face personal contact with the workforce. By providing an accessible and familiar presence on site makes the service highly visible to both the employer and the employees. As chaplains are considered by most employees as having exceptionally high standards of moral accountability, they are more likely to be trusted as neutral and independent when holding confidential conversations. Additionally, as the service is pro-active in nature chaplains bypass employee fears that they may be stigmatised as having a psychological problem for talking to a chaplain, as they are just as likely to talk to people who are having a good day as well people who are having a bad day
