Spill's employee assistance programme (EAP) for grocery & supermarkets
The delivery lorry arrives before sunrise, the queues never really stop, and by mid-afternoon someone's already been shouted at over the till. Supermarket work is physically repetitive and emotionally bruising, and most support schemes never reach the shop floor. Spill does: same-day therapy around any shift, booked by SMS from a personal phone, for £75 a month for the whole team.
Same day counselling sessions
Rolling 30 day contract
Unlimited access from £75 per month
Proudly supporting supermarket staff across the UK
The pressures facing supermarket staff
30% of retailers flagged store abuse as a top issue impacting staff wellbeing. Checkout staff take the brunt of it, on top of early deliveries and hours of physically repetitive work. Being shouted at is not something people should simply have to absorb.
High pressure environment
54% of retail workers have considered resigning as a result of chronic workplace stress.
Customer hostility
30% of retailers flagged store abuse as one of the top issues impacting staff wellbeing.
Financial strain
52% of retail workers say the rising cost of living is impacting their mental health.
The commercial case for grocery teams
Vacancies on the shop floor mean longer queues, gaps on shelves and pressure on everyone left behind. Staff who get real support after difficult incidents stay longer and keep standards up through the hardest weeks.

Build resilience on the front line
Give your team practical tools to handle rush-hour pressure, difficult customers and long days on their feet.
Keep the team sharp
Staff who get support for personal and work struggles bring more energy to every shift.
Cut short-notice absence
Early support stops small struggles snowballing into last-minute call-outs and long sick leave.
All-in-one EAP for your team
Unlimited counselling sessions
A private space for staff to work through anything, from a shift full of difficult customers to money worries at home, with a fully qualified therapist. Same-day availability around rotas, including evenings and weekends, with no waiting lists or forms.
Self-guided wellbeing resources
A library of practical, evidence-based resources written by licensed therapists who understand the unique pressures retail workers face. Covering over 200 topics from burnout prevention 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.
