Program Confidentiality. All
contacts with the Employee Assistance Program are held in the strictest
confidence. To maintain privacy and confidentiality the Coast Guard
contracts the Employee Assistance Program services with an outside
organization to operate the Employee Assistance Program. In no way does
using the Employee Assistance Program affect an employee's chances of
promotion or advancement. Service members, civilians and family members deal
directly with this national network of providers. The Employee Assistance
Program does not reveal the user's identity to the Coast Guard. In
addition, any discussion with an Employee Assistance Program counselor is
confidential and protected by law. The only exceptions to the
confidentiality are in cases of child abuse and specific state-enforced laws
addressing family violence (where reporting is mandatory), suicide and
imminent harm to another.
