February's topic: Helping Employers Build a Resilient Organization: Creating productivity through safe, stable, and supportive environments.
Research shows working individuals spend a great amount of time on the job and the time we spend at work can impact the quality of our lives. Employers can influence the quality of employee’s lives for the better by promoting resilience in their organizations. This can be accomplished by creating safe, stable, and supportive environments in which their employees work. Increasing EAPs awareness on the importance for employers to build a resilient organization can help promote better productivity and self-care.

1). Gain an understanding of what is a resilient organization
