Edenred UK has launched a new Employee Assistance Programme called mywellbeing helpline which will be available through its benefits platform to all SME and corporate clients.

Edenred is a leading digital platform for services and payments and the everyday companion for people at work, connecting 52 million users and more than 2 million partner merchants in 45 countries via 950,000 corporate clients.

Edenred offers specific-purpose payment solutions for food (such as meal benefits), incentives (such as gift cards, employee engagement platforms), mobility (such as multi-energy, maintenance, toll, parking and commuter solutions) and corporate payments (such as virtual cards).

mywellbeing helpline lets employers offer wellbeing support for employees at every level of their organisation for issues relating to their physical and mental health, finances, caring responsibilities, family, work or legal problems.

The support which is available through a 24/7, 365 days a year helpline and extends to immediate family, includes assessment of the issue in question and telephone guidance.

By offering mywellbeing helpline through the Edenred Savings platform, employers can offer an easy-to-access holistic package of financial, mental and physical wellbeing support.

Every employer offering the new employee assistance programme can use a pre-prepared internal communications pack to raise awareness of what’s offer among employees through email templates, posters and leaflets.

Andy Philpott, Marketing Director at Edenred said:

“Going into 2023, our latest employer research showed financial and mental wellbeing are the top concerns for HR teams in the year ahead.

Our new mywellbeing helpline employee assistance programme, means that organisations of any size can quickly put in place the support their people need to navigate the challenges they face, whether that is the cost-of-living crisis or other wellbeing issues.”
