Workplace Drug & Alcohol Screening and Collection

Drug and alcohol screening helps ensure a safer working environment by identifying employees who may be impaired by drugs or alcohol. This is particularly important in jobs that involve operating machinery, driving, or other safety-sensitive tasks. Introducing a screening program can also serve as a support system for employees struggling with substance abuse. Employers can provide resources for rehabilitation and assistance to help employees overcome their challenges.

This includes:

• Sample collection
• Drug screening that detects the 10 most commonly abused drugs
• Documentation to list any medication (where appropriate) and consent to test.
• LCMS confirmation of any non-negative screens. This LCMS method will produce legally defensible results. A ‘fast track’ service is available as an option.
• Result interpretation from a toxicology specialist if required.
• An alcohol test (where required using an approved breath test monitor, including a second confirmatory test if required. This will produce legally defensible results.
• The Collection Technician’s travel expenses and waiting time are included in an all-inclusive package

Maintaining a drug-free workplace can positively contribute to the company’s reputation. This can be particularly important for businesses that want to attract clients, customers, or investors who value a commitment to a safe and healthy work environment.
