Production Employee Assistance Program (WPO) 

Workplace Options (WPO) is an additional resource available to you during your time on a production. We’ve outlined the offered services below. 

1. Up to Six Sessions with a Qualified Counselor

You can utilize these sessions for short-term issues such as stress, interpersonal relationships, and bereavement. There are a variety of counselors that can assist across diverse languages, specialties, and availability. Each counseling session lasts up to 60 minutes. After contacting our service, a counselor will confirm their availability within five business days. Access to this resource is voluntary and completely confidential. 

2. Work-Life Resources

Our work-life resources vary depending on the life event that is applicable to you. WPO offers practical support for dependent care (children and elders), legal concerns, and general informational services. They will typically provide you with three to five confirmed referrals of local providers. After contacting the service, the research will be completed within 48 hours. When the findings are complete, the employee will be contacted and can choose to incur any financial obligations.
