Workers
who are members of the Construction Workers Pension Fund are
entitled to 4 free counselling sessions. In other cases, the
trust will pay for the introductory session only.
The
session nurse will ask the worker if he/she would like to talk
to a trained counselor and if he/she agrees, the worker is contacted
within 24 hours by our Counseling Administrator, who arranges
an appointment, at a time and place to suit the worker.
Counseling
service is provided in the strictest confidence.
