Effects of substance misuse
We all know the injurious effects drugs and alcohol can have on an individual’s personal life, but they can have an equally damaging effect in the workplace – both for the employee, co-workers and the business itself.
Our strategy
We work with our clients to ensure they have a robust and workable drug & alcohol policy. This provides a clear framework for employer and employees to work from and ensures that all relevant legislation is being adhered to.
Our services
A range of services is available to enforce the drug & alcohol policy: these include pre-employment screening, random screening (including a round-the-clock service on site), testing following accidents/incidents, advice on the most appropriate and least invasive testing methods using a chain of custody procedure that will withstand legal challenge, employee rehabilitation and education on the effects of drugs, alcohol and substance misuse.
Positive outcomes
Any drug and alcohol misuse can have an enormous impact on a business: financially, legally and in terms of reputation and performance. Bringing in an experienced OH provider to monitor and implement a bespoke drug & alcohol policy can greatly reduce the likelihood of incidents related to substance misuse.
