NUI Galway recognises the pressures all staff and their families experience and that internal resources are sometimes not appropriate for personal concerns.  We also know that it is in everyone's best interest to ensure that personal and work-related problems are solved as early as possible.

Staff are encouraged to use the EAP service, to help with problems at home and at work.  To make contact with the service, please contact the following FREEPHONE number: 1800 995955 or log onto our dedicated web service and enter the following:
