to offer employees and their families a wide variety of assistance. Employees or their family members may seek
information about services offered by contacting an EFAP Referral Agent, a list

As part of the EFAP, the Company has introduced a
Critical Incident Response Program for employees involved in an on-the-job
incident such as an accident involving death or serious injury.
