EAP will be protected and confidential, to the extent allowed by law. A participant's use of the <br />EAP is confidential and information will not be released to BCRC or any of its subscribing <br />organizations or participants without written release from the participant in accordance with the law. <br />Employees who use the EAP as a consequence of a positive drug or alcohol test will be subject to <br />the conditions established in the drug -testing portion of this policy. <br />The EAP staff has knowledge of the level and types of benefits available to BCRC employees. <br />Employees can access the services of the EAP through a hotline that is staffed twenty-four (24) <br />hours a day, seven (7) days a week, throughout the entire year. Employees calling the EAP hotline <br />are put in touch with a counselor who will conduct a professional assessment and who may meet <br />with them to further assess the nature of the problem in order to provide a referral to the best and <br />most appropriate level of care. The EAP is staffed by certified and credentialed human services <br />professionals who are sensitive to the needs of the individual. Individuals who take the initiative to <br />contact the EAP for assistance do so with the assurance that their calls will be treated respectfully <br />and confidentially. The direct services provided by the EAP are sponsored by BCRC. <br />In compliance with Public Law 100-690 (The Drug -Free Workplace Act), which applies only to <br />employers who have federal grants or federal contracts of more than $100,000, an employee who is <br />convicted of a workplace drug or alcohol violation and who is employed by a BCRC affiliated <br />employer must report this information to his/her immediate supervisor no later than five (5) days <br />after such conviction. The supervisor must report this information immediately to the employer's <br />Program Administrator. <br />
