TruHealth provides drug and alcohol testing services to help workplaces stay safe and follow important rules. These services are designed to check if employees are under the influence of drugs or alcohol, which can cause problems at work. TruHealth ensures that testing is done in a respectful and professional way to protect everyone involved.
The testing follows Australian standards such as AS/NZS 4308 for urine testing and AS/NZS 4760 for oral fluid testing. These standards ensure that the results are correct and trustworthy.
Drug and alcohol testing is a way to find out if someone has used drugs or alcohol. A sample, such as urine or saliva, is tested to check for the presence of substances. Testing can detect drugs like marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines, and opioids, as well as alcohol.
This testing is commonly used in workplaces to ensure employees are safe and able to perform their tasks properly. The tests can also help businesses follow the law and keep their reputation strong.
Workplaces need drug and alcohol testing for many reasons. The main reason is to keep everyone safe. When employees use drugs or alcohol, it increases the chance of accidents, especially in high-risk jobs like construction or driving.
Testing also helps businesses follow Australian laws and workplace rules. In industries like transport and mining, regular testing is often required. Businesses that use testing show they care about their employees’ safety and their clients’ trust.
Testing also reduces problems like poor performance at work. It ensures employees are alert and focused on their tasks.
TruHealth offers several types of drug and alcohol tests. Each type is suitable for different situations and can detect substances over various time periods.
Urine drug testing is the most common method used in workplaces. It is reliable and can detect drug use over a longer period. This test is done by collecting a urine sample and testing it for drugs like marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines, and opioids.
Urine drug testing follows the AS/NZS 4308 standard, which ensures accurate results. It is suitable for regular testing in workplaces or before hiring new employees.
What’s Included:
Oral fluid testing uses saliva to detect recent drug use. This type of testing is less invasive and can be done quickly. It is suitable for detecting drugs used within the last 24 hours.
Oral fluid testing follows the AS/NZS 4760 standard. It is commonly used for post-incident testing or random checks in workplaces. This method is easy to use and does not require much privacy.
What’s Included:
Hair follicle testing is used to detect long-term drug use. A small sample of hair is taken, usually from the crown of the head, and tested in a lab. This method can show drug use over a period of up to 90 days or more.
Hair follicle testing is suitable for industries that require a detailed history of drug use, such as management roles or sensitive positions. The results take a few days but provide a complete picture of substance use.
What’s Included:
Alcohol testing is used to check if someone has been drinking. It is often done with a breathalyser, which measures alcohol levels in the breath. This method gives instant results and is very accurate.
Alcohol testing is suitable for pre-shift checks, random testing, or after an incident. It helps ensure that employees are not under the influence of alcohol while working.
Drug and alcohol testing can be done in different situations, depending on the needs of the workplace.
Pre-employment testing is done before hiring new employees. This ensures that the person is suitable for the job and not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. It is especially important for jobs that require focus and safety.
What’s Included:
Regular health checks help maintain a healthy workforce. You can schedule these periodic assessments quarterly, bi-annually, or annually, based on your company’s requirements.
What’s Included:
Post-incident testing is done after an accident or incident at work. This helps to find out if drugs or alcohol contributed to the event. Testing after incidents ensures that proper steps are taken to avoid future problems.
What’s Included:
Return-to-work testing is done when an employee who tested positive earlier is ready to come back to work. This ensures that the employee is now safe to return and can perform their duties without any risks.
Random testing is done without any prior notice. This helps to ensure that all employees follow the workplace rules. Random testing reduces the chances of substance use at work and improves safety.
