PRO�RAM <br /> � Gerhardson, Public Works Supervisor, met with P'Ir. <br /> Paul Thorne of the Hazelden Foundation to discuss <br /> � an Employee Assistance Program. After the discussion, <br /> we agreed that this program could be a benefit to <br /> � all employees and their families and we felt the <br /> • �ity of Orono should participate. <br /> � The Er�ployee Assistance Program deals with any type <br /> of a problem an employee or his f_amily mav have f_rom <br /> � alcohol to financial. At the time of_ the+meetinc�, <br /> there were four diagnostic and referral agencies <br /> • available for us to interview. <br /> � I have interviewed Human Resource Associates and <br /> � the D'Ietro Clinic of Counseling. Another agency, <br /> H.I.R.E.D. , is no longer available, and i4ulti- <br /> � Resource Center indicated to me that because of <br /> their location, they would not be a benefit to <br /> � Orono and canceled out. <br /> � After interviewing the two agencies, it is my <br /> • recommendation to contract with Human Resource <br /> Associates. They have all the basic needs of an <br /> � employee assistance program. They have offices <br /> and staff within a reasonable distance and their <br /> � rates are lower than P�Ietro Clinic. <br /> � The City of Orono has forty-four (44) employees <br /> and Human Resource Associates' cost is $8. 00 per <br /> � emplo��ee per year which includes all er�ployees' <br /> �families.
