Program Statement. The Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides confidential, professional guidance and counseling to help employees resolve personal problems which adversely affect job performance. It is designed to provide assistance to employees and their families in handling a wide range of personal problems including alcohol and/or drug dependency or abuse. It is the Company’s intent that each employee has the opportunity to achieve full job potential and where personal problems interfere with this goal, the EAP can be of valuable assistance. Employees may obtain professional assistance through the Employee Assistance Program in the following ways - self referral (including family referral), Supervisory referral, Union referral or medical referral. In addition, employees should be aware that the EAP Coordinators will be available for assistance and guidance in obtaining help for a co-worker who may be having personal or job performance problems. Through the EAP, employees receive confidential help in assessing their problems and where appropriate, referrals to outside resources such as doctors, psychologists, hospitals or clinics, the employees will be responsible for charges in excess of those covered under the Company’s medical plan. Employees are strongly urged to contact the EAP Coordinators before alcohol, drug or personal problems lead to disciplinary action. Participation in the EAP will not prevent or lessen disciplinary action for poor job performance or violation of Company policy. However, employees who voluntarily request assistance in dealing with alcohol and/or drug problems may participate in the EAP without jeopardizing their continued employment with the Company, providing they follow the prescribed course of treatment and refrain from further involvement with alcohol and/or drugs.
