if the employee signs an ROI, it is appropriate for the EA professional to contact
the employee's supervisor to ensure any work-related concerns are addressed
during treatment and reentry into work is properly coordinated. In situations where
the EAP client's employment is at risk, the EA professional may be responsible for
monitoring compliance with tx recommendations.

expectations. The EAP may monitor the employee's compliance for weeks, months
