Supporting mental wellbeing in Gaming
Recognising the demanding nature of the gaming industry, Scopely upgraded its European EAP to Oliva—prioritising enhanced support for employee wellbeing.
Oliva’s advanced matching made it easier for people to find the right professional, faster. More people used it—and they got amazing feedback from the team.
“Oliva’s engagement rate was 58% vs. 21% with the other provider. People are really happy with it. They now have an outlet for both work and personal problems.”
Standing out in a tough talent market
In the competitive world of gaming, companies like Scopely are always striving to attract top talent. Providing a comprehensive mental wellbeing benefit sets them apart.
While the industry is known for its intense periods, Scopely's partnership with Oliva demonstrates their genuine dedication to employee happiness.
“Having Oliva makes a difference when hiring. For sure it’s helped us attract talent. Especially because people can add friends and family as well. ”
Global support for international teams
Scopely’s team is spread across four continents. Before, they had separate EAPs and wellbeing providers for different regions.
Nine months after replacing their EAP for EMEA with Oliva, Scopely rolled it out in the US too.
Their reasons?
- Higher engagement rates
- Global language support
- Proper partnership vs. feeling like just another client
“Oliva is a true partner.
They feel like an extension of our team and they care as deeply about our people as I do.”
Empowering managers to deal with a crisis
In October 2023, Scopely employees were impacted by violent conflict in the Middle East.
Oliva’s senior Care Team and Workplace Wellbeing Partners provided direct support for Mariana and the Scopely team, including:
- Workshop for managers on supporting teammates during stressful world events
- Share-ready resources on panic attacks
- Custom assets signposting 1-to-1 therapy
- Increasing pool of Hebrew-speaking therapists
“The response to support our teammates in the Middle East meant a lot to us. I don’t know what we would have done without Oliva.”
Rated #1 mental wellbeing platform in Europe by employees
The group sessions are so good, you don't have to say a word if you don't want to, and you can really take something away from it. Some of the things I was told to practise have stuck with me.
Oliva Health has effectively released my stress. The therapy session has been surprisingly effective. This is the first therapy session I've had in my life, but it turned out to work out so well.
This service is such a blessing! I’ve had two therapists prior to this, both via the NHS and took up to 1.5 years each to access. Oliva paired me with a therapist within days and offered an appointment within a week.
Oliva is a really good service for mental well-being and i would recommend to anyone wanting to make sure that employees feel valued and taken care of. Booking sessions is extremely easy. Would highly recommend.
I’ve always been very skeptical about therapy. However, I needed some help after being unable to handle a personal situation alone, so I decided to take advantage of Oliva. I could not be happier with that decision.
I've been using Oliva regularly for individual therapy & manager coaching for 1.5+ years now as it's helped me massively on my personal and professional journeys. It's without a doubt the most valuable perk I get access to.
It's a really great wellness hub. This services makes therapy and wellness accessible. A great tool in work life balance and increasing work quality.
Great support from the Oliva team and would recommend to anyone looking to improve their wellbeing in their their personal or professional lives.
Oliva was provided by company and I'm so happy as it finally gave me the push I needed to talk to someone professionally. In my sessions I feel very relaxed, at ease, and, most importantly, listened to.
