Rippl & Workplace Options Partner to Offer Premium EAP Services

We’re delighted to announce our brand-new partnership with Workplace Options, the world’s largest independent provider of employee wellbeing services, to deliver comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) support to our UK customers – accessible from the devices employees already use every day.

With over 40 years of experience supporting people through life’s most challenging moments, Workplace Options brings a depth of clinical expertise and a genuinely human-centred approach to employee care. By combining that expertise with Rippl’s mobile-first platform, we’re ensuring that every employee — not just those behind a desk — can access the high-quality support they need, when they need it most.

Why this partnership matters

The demand for mental health and wellbeing support in the workplace has never been greater. Over 1.3 million counselling sessions were provided through EAPs in 2022 alone, and that demand has only continued to grow as employees navigate the pressures of modern working life.

At the same time, the stigma around seeking mental health support has meaningfully reduced. More employees than ever are willing to ask for help, but too often, the systems designed to provide it let them down.

Traditional EAP models were built for a different era of work. They rely on corporate devices, desktop portals, and access methods that simply don’t reach the frontline, deskless, or distributed workers who make up a significant portion of today’s workforce. When the user experience is complex, inaccessible, or buried beneath layers of HR processes, even the best EAP services go unused.

That’s the problem we’re solving together.
