Drug and Alcohol Testing in the Workplace Guide
This guide will cover the fundamentals of drug testing in the workplace.
Overview
Drugs and alcohol have no place in the workplace. An employee who is impaired by drugs or alcohol may find it hard to focus and stay on task, and is more inclined to risk-taking behaviours. All of these factors make an intoxicated employee a hazard to themselves and others in the workplace.
