RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING PARTICIPATION IN EMPLOYEE
ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
WHEREAS, the State of Minnesota through Hennepin County has
provided financial subsidies to encourage employers to participate in an
Employee Assistance Program; and
WHEREAS, such a program is intended to assist individual employees
with a broad range of human relations problems such as alcoholism, drug
dependency, emotional problems, financial problems, and other similar
personal problems; and
WHEREAS, the program is based on the premise that such problems can
adversely affect an employee's ability to function effectively on the job; and
WHEREAS, through the program an employee can obtain initial diagnostic
services at no charge without concern that participation will jeopardize the
employee's job security, promotional opportunities nor reputation; and
WHEREAS, the City of Brooklyn Center has participated in the Employee
Assistance Program since July 1, 1977 and wishes to continue this program:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Brooklyn Center to authorize Brooklyn Center's continued participation in the
Employee Assistance Program through June 30, 1979 at a cost not to exceed
650 during that period.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the costs for the Employee Assistance
Program be charged to the Council Professional Services appropr'ation.
