ASSESSMENT: The most important step in the EAP process is to determine the nature and extent of your problem. It is always in your best interest to consult with your EAP coordinator before making any treatment choices. Once you have discussed the nature of your problem, your EAP coordinator will generally recommend a course of action for you. This can range from a single, on-site session to individualized treatment, depending on the seriousness and complexity of the issue. The decision to accept recommended treatment is entirely yours. When a referral includes external treatment, the EAP staff will coordinate the appropriate resource and subsequent referral and treatment plans.
REFERRAL: Union leadership, stewards, or supervisors may become involved when someone either asks for help or when an apparent pattern of behavior indicates that some personal problems may be affecting the employee's ability to function on the job. An EAP referral may be initiated to prevent possible further harm to the employee.
FOLLOW-UP: A follow-up support system is available to employees to enhance their day-to-day recovery. The process includes workplace re-entry consultation, tailored self-help support groups and individual counseling sessions as needed.
