Additional Specialized Assessment Services:

Forensic Assessments

Services of psychologists who are highly experienced in forensic assessments can be accessed by any Insight EFAP covered employee or his/her eligible family member when he/she is charged with a violation of law where psychological, intellectual and competency assessment plays a crucial component in effecting the court's judgement. Factors determined by the assessments include the likelihood of a person to repeat his/her offence, the person's intellectual ability to comprehend his/her actions and many other factors.

Custody/Access/Parenting Assessment

Marital and family break-ups are among the highest stressors of a person's life. Unfortunately, they are becoming more common and a large portion of today's workforce is affected by such a break up at one point or another in their life. When custody battles for the children ensue, the stress, pressure and emotional anxiety increases. An employee's work performance, concentration, alertness and personal health commonly suffer when experiencing such situations.

Some organizations can offer support to an employee by supporting or allowing him/her to obtain a custody/access/parenting assessment if he/she requires one due to failed mediation or if one is needed to support the employees' custody claim. This type of support reflects an organization's awareness and sensitivity to changes in family dynamics that directly effect their employees' well-being.
