RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract with Managed Health Network, with a payment limit of $163,584 and a term from October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2018, to provide counseling services to Sheriff-Coroner employees.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$163,584.00, 100% County General Fund; Budgeted.

BACKGROUND:

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract with Managed Health Network to provide counseling services to Sheriff-Coroner employees. The Sheriff and others in the law enforcement field feel that stress counseling can reduce workers compensation and disability retirement claims. This program has become an essential part of the overall employee assistance package and many employees have received significant help in their personal and professional lives by utilizing the available services.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

There is the potential for the increase in stress related workers compensation claims and disability claims if counseling services are not provided as part of a comprehensive employee assistance program.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

None.
