I think that you need to go back and see what your agreement is .Some (but a few services ) will provide family members access to EAP schemes but none that I know of would ever expect a report . That makes me wonder what those folk consented to before you saw them ?
Think you need to run that train of events before you agree to anything

Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Referral Dilemma
Dear All
I need some advice on a dilemma that has recently confronted me.
I provide an OH service to a specific industry via their welfare service but last week had 2 dependents of industry staff booked in to see me. Both have complex health issues but I felt uneasy about what expectations they and the Welfare service had regarding potential outcomes. I am currently having a dialogue with the Welfare team regarding the reason for these dependents being referred and what they want from me. My concern is whether this puts me in a legally, ethically or morally difficult position. I had no prior warning that these were not industry staff and now I have been asked to submit an OH report for each. I feel very uneasy about this and would appreciate some advice.
Many thanks
Liz
