What kinds of information can a supervisor obtain when an employee receives a written referral to the EAP?
A supervisor can request confirmation of attendance and dates of attendance, particularly if the employee is attending EAP sessions on government time, or is utilizing sick time to do so. No specific content of the counseling sessions can be released by the EAP counselor unless the employee signs a release of information permitting such disclosure.
