¨     EAP providers are not permitted to write letters or release information to courts, attorneys or agencies to support employee claims regarding time, disability, workers’ compensation, custody or any other issues.

¨     The EAP counseling sessions cannot be used as a substitute for court-ordered counseling of any kind.  The employee may be seen by the EAP counselor while he/she is receiving court ordered treatment but we are not a substitute for it, and may not write letters to the court on behalf of the client.
