Alcohol and drug testing and support services work best when they form part of a comprehensive alcohol and drug policy. But having a policy in place is only the first step. Effective education and training to ensure 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.
Hampton Knight’s new eLearning platform now makes delivering this training to your teams even easier, giving your employees the flexibility to access it online anywhere, at any time, whether they’re based on site, at home, or hybrid working.

eLearning Training for Managers, Supervisors and Employees
How it works
Our eLearning platform can be accessed online via any smart device and allows us to create a bespoke training module tailored specifically for your company. The module will last approximately 30 minutes and focus on the following key objectives:
Educating your employees, managers and supervisors about:
- the different types of drugs and their effects
- the risks to health and safety that alcohol and drug misuse poses in the workplace
- the signs and symptoms of substance misuse or dependency
Raising awareness of:
- their legal responsibilities
- your company alcohol and drug policy and how it is used (supplementary guidance notes can be provided for your managers and supervisors on using your policy)
- how to deal with an incident relating to drug or alcohol misuse (again, supplementary documentation can be provided)
Providing information on:
- the different alcohol and drug testing procedures
- our counselling and rehabilitation programme and how it works for the benefit of both the employee and the company
To create a more immersive learning experience and ensure maximum engagement, the on-screen content is accompanied by a voiceover which will lead the user through the session.
The brief video below provides a further helpful overview of how the eLearning module works:
The benefits for you and your employees
We developed our eLearning platform to ensure that we can continue to provide our customers with the highest standard of service while offering them much greater flexibility amid the ever-evolving post-COVID working landscape. However, our new online solution delivers multiple additional benefits too:
- More cost-effective – your overhead costs are reduced as you no longer have to arrange a venue or travel to and from the session and employee downtime is minimised I wasn’t sure on my original wording against this bullet, so have reworked it slightly here. You might want to keep the original from the email and replace it here, or replace the wording in the email with this alternative.
- Reduces learning time while achieving the same aims – all online modules include a knowledge quiz to consolidate your employees’ learning and check their understanding
- Greater convenience – training can be scheduled around your employees’ shift patterns and other commitments
- Easily accessible – employees can access the eLearning platform via any smart device (including their mobile phone, tablet or computer) so they can undertake the training whenever and wherever they are.
