Contractor Care Package

Precision Sourcing’s number one strategy is ‘health & wellbeing’.

We know that if we support the health and wellbeing of our employees then they will be productive, perform and kick goals.

For several years now we have had an EAP in place with Acacia EAP that has had a positive impact on the team and in some cases their families.  With this in mind it feels only natural to offer this EAP service to our valued contractors.

See below more information explaining the service.
