Take good care of your employees and your company

- safe and secure drug testing at the workplace

Drugs in the workplace

You may think, like many other company managers, that none of your employees has a daily consumption of drugs - you would have discovered that. But several substances such as cocaine have a stimulating effect. This means that it can be difficult to spot as the employee does not seem affected. Here, drug testing may be necessary for safety in the workplace.

The stimulants that give us energy also make us very confident, overconfident and restless. This can lead to a significantly increased risk of occupational accidents. The critical sense is reduced and can have a negative impact on the quality of the work

Take good care of your employees

If you have a handle on the drug policy and action plan, you can prevent accidents and avoid the dismissal of employees. It is beneficial for the company when you can retain good employees who need help and support

Stimulant substances

Cocaine, amphetamines and ecstasy are the most used stimulants. They provide energy, but users also become more restless, overconfident, self-confident and the critical sense is reduced.

Statistics

More than every 20th adult regularly uses cocaine, amphetamines or ecstasy. Statistically speaking, there are employees who use drugs in companies with more than 10 employees.

The use of drugs in Denmark is increasing. It has an impact on the number of work-related accidents

Drugs in everyday life

Adults use drugs in everyday life to boost performance or meet deadlines. Drugs make us less alert and less self-critical, with the risk of lower quality and safety at work. Drugs are involved in accidents both at workplaces and in the transport industry.

We provide a safe and reliable setup

Drugs, politics and testing

For many years now, all companies have included regulations on alcohol in their personnel policy. We know that alcohol abuse still takes place but have become better at spotting it and often also have action plans ready.

Unfortunately, this rarely applies in relation to narcotics / euphoric substances. Drug abuse has taken over alcohol abuse in the workplace and many companies have not dealt with what can/must be done if an employee is perceived to be under the influence.

Drug policy and testing

Drug policy is used as a preventive element, as testing can help prevent affected persons from operating machines/tools or vehicles.

Economy

Economically, it is an advantage to have control over drug policy. Employees with current consumption have a greater risk of sickness absence, reduced quality of work and increased risk of accidents.

The company

The employer is also responsible for ensuring that the work can be carried out safely and healthily. Both for the individual employee and colleagues.

Partners who have chosen our solutions

Lad vores team hjælpe jer også

We ensure that your future or current drug policy meets applicable guidelines and is legally valid. Both in relation to the execution of tests and the processing of personal data. We ensure that employees are notified correctly before you start testing employees.

Your drug policy should say something about "Who, Where, When, and How". It must contain, among other things:

  • Purpose
  • Who does it apply to?
  • Where and when it applies
  • Tolerance / exceptions
  • Rules for testing and procedure
  • Processing of personal data and test results
  • Possible support in case of abuse
  • Sanctions for breach of agreement

Introduction to meeting

DDHS invites you to an initial meeting where we will together uncover the company's challenges and needs.

Preparation of drug policy

DDHS revises or prepares a legally valid drug policy and notification procedure in collaboration with the company.

Preparation of plan

Together with you, DDHS prepares a plan for how testing of employees should take place and finds the solution that best suits your company.

Test - Our setup

DDHS comes out to the company or the workplace. We bring a device for screening oral fluids. The response time is 5-7 min. In the event of a screening result, a new sample is taken for control. This is sent to an external laboratory. Responses to checks are available within 5 working days. 

The test material is oral fluids

We test oral fluids for several reasons.

  • It is the least invasive testing method and does not violate the integrity of the plague subject.
  • Narcotic substances can be measured in oral fluids for 10 – 36 hours. This means that only those who have daily consumption are tested positive and it thus gives a more realistic picture of a possible problem.
