Spill's employee assistance programme (EAP) for recruitment and HR

HR and recruitment carry everyone else's hard days: the redundancies, the grievances, the personal crises. Then they're expected to champion wellbeing with nothing left in the tank themselves. With 54% of HR professionals burned out in the last five years, Spill exists to support the people team too, not just the people they support.

Recruitment & HR

Proudly supporting recruitment and HR teams across the UK

Who supports the people team?

HR and recruitment professionals carry a distinctive emotional-labour burden. They absorb redundancies, grievances, performance exits and personal crises, while being expected to champion everyone else's wellbeing. Their own needs are too often left last.

HR burnout risk

48% of HR leaders say their teams are at risk of burnout. (Aconso, 2024)

Intention to leave

34% of HR professionals are considering leaving the sector within a year; 54% have burned out in the last five. (Personio, 2025)

Worse-than-average health

30% of people professionals say work negatively affects their mental and physical health. (CIPD, 2022)

Look after the people who look after everyone else

A third of HR professionals are thinking about leaving the profession within a year. Spill gives them real support, and a benefit they can roll out to the whole business knowing it actually gets used.

Perform under pressure, sustainably

Help your people manage deadline pressure and perfectionism without burning out.

Protect focus and judgement

Clear heads make better decisions for clients, especially in high-stakes weeks.

Reduce quiet absence

Presenteeism and sick days both fall when people have somewhere to take the pressure.
