    Abstract

    There is growing interest in worker wellbeing and the workplace as a potential intervention site for alcohol and other drug (AOD) and mental health issues. Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) play an increasingly important support role for workers in Australia and around the world. This study investigated the origins, development, milestones and contextual drivers of EAPs internationally from the
    1960s to the present day, and identified potential developmental trajectories into the future.
