Why Conduct Drug and Alcohol Testing at Work
Employees have the right to a safe workplace environment. In safety-sensitive industries, implementing testing policies allows for proactive risk management as well as work health and safety assurance.
Reduce Workplace Accidents and Injuries
Studies show that workers under the influence are more likely to make errors in judgement, operate equipment unsafely, and put both themselves and their colleagues at risk of serious injury.
Promote a Responsible Workplace Culture
Regular screening programs send a clear message about your company’s commitment to safety and professional conduct, fostering an environment where employees take personal responsibility seriously.
Minimise Liability and Workers Comp Claims
Regular testing not only reduces employers’ exposure to workplace liability, but also demonstrates due diligence in maintaining a safe workplace. This leads to reduced insurance premiums and fewer workers compensation claims.

Questions & Answer
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a drug and alcohol test take?
A standard drug and alcohol screening typically takes 10-15 minutes per person for sample collection. Breath alcohol testing provides immediate results, while drug screening results are usually available within 24-48 hours, depending on the testing method and laboratory processing times. On-site testing can provide preliminary results in as little as 10 minutes.
What types of drug and alcohol testing methods are used in the workplace?
Workplace testing commonly uses three main methods: urine drug testing (UDT), oral fluid testing (saliva), and breath alcohol testing.
Each method has specific advantages: urine testing offers comprehensive substance detection, oral fluid testing is less invasive and harder to tamper with, and breath alcohol testing provides immediate results for alcohol levels. The choice of method often depends on your industry requirements and workplace policies.
What drugs are detected in a standard workplace drug screen?
A standard workplace drug screen typically tests for multiple drug classes including:
- Cannabis (THC)
- Opiates (including heroin and codeine)
- Amphetamines and methamphetamines
- Cocaine
- Benzodiazepines
- MDMA (ecstasy)
How accurate are drug and alcohol screening tests?
Modern drug and alcohol screening tests are highly accurate when conducted properly, with accuracy rates exceeding 99% for laboratory-confirmed results. Initial positive results undergo confirmatory testing using advanced laboratory methods to eliminate false positives. Breath alcohol testing devices are calibrated regularly to maintain Australian Standards compliance and accuracy.
How often should workplace drug and alcohol testing be conducted?
The frequency of testing depends on your industry, risk level, and workplace policy. Common approaches include:
- Pre-employment screening
- Random testing (typically 10-25% of workforce quarterly)
- Post-incident testing
- For-cause testing when impairment is suspected
- Return-to-work testing
Industries with high safety risks often conduct more frequent random testing.
Is random drug and alcohol testing legal in Australia?
Yes, random drug and alcohol testing is legal in Australia when conducted as part of a clear workplace policy that employees have agreed to. The testing must be implemented fairly and consistently, with proper procedures for privacy, confidentiality, and dispute resolution.
Different states may have specific requirements, particularly for certain industries like mining, construction, and transportation.
What happens if a candidate’s test result is positive?
Positive results are sent for confirmatory testing to determine the nature of the substance. Employers will handle the next steps based on workplace policies.
How much does workplace drug and alcohol testing cost?
At AusRehab, we strive to keep prices affordable while maintaining high standards of quality testing. Prices start from:
- Instant Drug & Alcohol Screen: $75
- Lab Drug And Alcohol Screen: $150
