Health & Safety

Health & Safety

The well-being of employees working in such a high-risk sector is of paramount importance, not just for their peace of mind, but also for yours.

Recent studies show that around 10% of drivers screened are testing positive for drugs of abuse - typically used to relieve boredom, or to stay awake.

Our Recommendations For Transport & Logistics

A robust Drug and Alcohol Policy is the first port of call. We believe in prevention where-ever possible, so having a pro-active approach and affecting the culture in the business is important, as you want to address any substance problems head-on before an issue or scenario arises.

Having drug and alcohol screening in place supports your policy and sets the stance from the top down that these substances have no place at work.

  • My cooperation is with William Smith, we purchase Surescreen fast tests. I can only say all the best, he is replying very fast and things we need are done ASAP. He is always ready to discuss any issues we have (not that we have a lot), but still. He is giving us all the support we need. He was kind enough to help us with getting on EU list (still waiting, but getting there), which was really nice as we need it to keep selling the tests. It is a pleasure to work with him.

    For any more questions I am available.

    I wish you all a very nice day
