Ceridian Adds Streaming Video Tips to Its EAP and Work-Life Online Services
Enhanced service available to employees of companies that offer human resource management company's LifeWorks Online service.
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) August 9, 2005 -- Ceridian (www.myceridian.com), a leader
in human resource management solutions that maximize the value of people, today
announced that employees of organizations providing Ceridian EAP, work-life and
Health & Productivity Management services as part of their employee benefit
package can now access online streaming video tips on how to cope with a number
of issues.
By simply logging onto Ceridian's Web site, LifeWorks Online,
people can view two to three-minute streaming videos on various topics. They can
view tips on how to deal with managing personal debt, depression, and many other
personal and family subjects, delivered by consultants who are subject-matter
experts in their respective areas of counseling.
“The videos provide an
excellent starting point for people to obtain information about how to best deal
with issues in their life,” said Jim Corcoran, president of Ceridian Benefit
Services. “They provide information in a very engaging format and are fully
integrated with other modes of access.”
Among the topics that are
currently available through LifeWorks Online's new streaming video option are:
* Making time to recharge your batteries
* Managing worry
*
Recognizing depression
* Steps you can take to reduce your debt
*
Communicating as a couple
Ceridian will continue to add to its library of
streaming video, audio text and interactive support tools to meet the needs of
its human resource management customers. The streaming videos can be viewed by
users in one of three formats – high bandwidth (for those using a high speed
connection), low bandwidth (for those using a dial-up connection), and text (for
those using assistive technology like screen readers). All three versions
provide the same information but in a format that works best for the individual
user.
Upon viewing a video, participants are encouraged to call a
consultant for more information. They also have easy access to additional
information including thousands of articles, interactive tools, online ordering
of materials and other resources.
In recent months, Ceridian added a
full continuum of Health & Productivity Management solutions to its suite of
human resources outsourcing services with the goal of providing tools for
organizations to improve the overall health of their employees and to reduce
absenteeism. Ceridian's LifeWorks Online streaming video enhancement is one of
the components of this new and expanded set of offerings now being offered by
the human resource outsourcing company.
Ceridian was the nation's first
provider of fully integrated EAP, work-life and wellness services. Today,
Ceridian's EAP and work-life services are utilized by more than 25,000
organizations worldwide of all sizes in virtually every industry.
