Spill's employee assistance programme (EAP) for engineering
One in four engineers has considered self-harm or suicide, yet only half would tell their employer they're stressed. In a profession built on solving problems, mental health is the one problem most engineers won't raise. Spill lowers the barrier: private, same-day counselling booked from a phone, with no manager referral and no forms.

Engineers fix everything except this
Engineering is a heavily male-dominated profession, over 89% male, in which more than 70% of workers feel men are expected to control their emotions and not show weakness. That culture suppresses help-seeking and leaves serious problems hidden until they reach crisis point.
Suicidal thoughts
1 in 4 engineers have considered self-harm or taking their own life, up from 1 in 5 in 2019. (EqualEngineers, 2022)
A widening risk gap
Male engineers are 3.5x more likely than women to report self-harm or suicidal thoughts. (EqualEngineers, 2022)
Reluctance to seek help
Only 50% of engineers feel comfortable talking to their employer about stress. (EqualEngineers, 2022)
Support that reaches people before crisis
In a culture where showing strain feels unacceptable, problems surface late and expensively, as absence, errors or resignations. Spill makes reaching out easy enough that people do it early.

All-in-one EAP for your team
Unlimited counselling sessions
A completely private way to talk to a qualified therapist, booked from a phone with no manager referral and no forms. Same-day availability from 7am to 9:30pm, seven days a week, wherever the work is.
Self-guided wellbeing resources
A library of practical, evidence-based resources written by licensed therapists who understand the unique pressures engineering workers face. Covering over 200 topics from stress and anxiety to financial wellbeing and sleep, our online resources can be accessed at any time. They're a great first step for anyone who's not quite ready to speak to a counsellor directly.
Expert guidance and training
Practical, therapist-led training workshops designed to empower staff to spot mental health presentations within nurseries, schools and universities and know how to appropriately respond. Teachers can also check in with a Spill safeguarding clinician for advice at any time.
