Supporting Managers

This tool has been designed for managers wishing to implement a process involving their referral of an employee for independent support and assistance from an EAP Professional.

In the majority of cases these types of referrals are linked to a performance or behavioural issue that has been raised with the individual and subsequently is being managed by the Employer. Manager Referrals also provide the opportunity for the referring manager to request feedback from EAP Services in order to assist them to manage the circumstances under which they have referred an employee.

Feedback could be as little as confirmation of attendance. To ensure that any requested feedback is easily supplied to the referring manager, we require the employee to also sign this form (where indicated), giving their authority for EAP Services to disclose the stated feedback to the referring manager.
