Which businesses require Drug and Alcohol Testing?
For businesses in which health and safety is paramount, workplace drug testing is essential. Similarly, workplaces that are striving to boost employee wellbeing, that utilise Occupational Health teams, or that utilise temporary employees, are well-positioned to benefit from drug and alcohol testing.
However, any business may need to deploy a testing program and policy to suit – perhaps even to meet contractual obligations and secure tenders. Examples of the industries we have experience working with include, but are not exclusive to:
Transport
Construction
Recruitment
Occupational Health
Manufacturing
Logistics
Aviation
Oil & Gas

How our services are tailored to UK businesses
Many drug testing products sold in the UK and Ireland use high cut-off levels. Regularly these are manufactured specifically for the US market, consequently missing many “positive” results, thereby resulting in persons continuing or returning to work with drugs in their system.
Our products are manufactured specifically for the UK and Ireland, giving businesses legally defensible and useful results that meet European Workplace Drug Testing Society (EWDTS) laboratory screening cut-off levels.
Many businesses are finding that their existing Health & Safety Policy is insufficient nor legally defensible, and “off the shelf” policies often miss specific details relevant to your industry leaving things wide open for challenge. The consequences of getting it wrong can be severe, So why chance it?. Let ITS do the hard work for you making sure you get everything right first time.
