If an EAP referral to a treatment provider outside the EAP is necessary, costs may be covered by the employee's medical insurance, but the cost of such outside services are the employee's responsibility. Participation in the EAP will not affect an employee's career advancement or employment, nor will it protect an employee from disciplinary action if substandard job performance continues. The EAP can be accessed by an employee through self-referral or through referral by a supervisor.
