AB  - Problems arise in attempting to evaluate Employee Assistance
Programmes (EAP) in the widest sense. Terms such as
“evaluation”, and “benefits” are regarded as
potentially complex, as is the adequate definition of what constitutes
“employee assistance”. Studies concerned both with alcohol
programmes and with stress management are reviewed; specific problems
are highlighted. Methodology and the appropriateness of the traditional
scientific method are much discussed. “Meta‐evaluation” is
proposed to run concurrently with the unravelling of methodological
questions in order to address the interfacing of programmes with other
sections of the organisation, and the extent to which environmental and
organisational factors rather than individuals are targeted for change.
