This helps employees better manage stress, improve work performance, and increase retention. Organizations benefit from reduced absenteeism and turnover through counseling. To be effective, counselors must maintain strict confidentiality to build trust with employees and allow open discussion of sensitive issues. Overall, counseling improves employee well-being and productivity while demonstrating the employer's commitment to staff welfare.
