DESCRIPTION


A government authority in Jackson, Mississippi is seeking a vendor to provide employee assistance program services for a one-year contract period. Services will support agency employees and their covered family members with confidential assistance related to stress, burnout, trauma exposure, secondary trauma or compassion fatigue, work-life balance, marital and family concerns, substance or process disorders, addictions, anxiety, depression, grief, and other personal or emotional issues.

The program must include a toll-free, confidential employee assistance telephone line available 24 hours a day and staffed by professionals with at least a master's degree in social work, counseling, marriage and family therapy, or psychology. The service may provide a singular intervention when appropriate and must support after-hours, face-to-face emergency counseling for homicidal, suicidal, or actively psychotic episodes.

The vendor must also provide training for managers and supervisors on identifying personal and emotional problems that may affect workplace performance, documenting concerns, and appropriately referring employees to the employee assistance program. An online portal must provide timely access to information and resources without requiring direct engagement with a licensed provider for every need, while maintaining appropriate confidentiality and privacy standards. Questions are due by September 10, 2026.
