Workplace alcohol and drug testing support services work most effectively when they form part of a more comprehensive policy and procedure.
Our specialist in-house advisors can work with you to create a new policy and workplace procedure or help you to review and develop your existing one to ensure that it:
- is clear, fair and robust enough to withstand a legal challenge
- complies with current health and safety requirements and fulfils employment law and data protection obligations
- provides a range of procedures to enable you and your managers to initiate an appropriate response if an employee is suspected of breaching the policy or seeks assistance for an alcohol or drug dependency
However, having a policy in place is only the first step. Ensuring that both your employees and management teams are aware of your policy, why it has been introduced and how it will be used is crucial to support its positive implementation.
That’s why we also offer support with planning and delivering structured training programmes to help you embed your policy effectively at every level of your organisation.
