Since 2013, Drug and Alcohol Solutions Australia (DASA) have worked in partnership with Linfox to develop and implement a robust drug and alcohol program that includes random, targeted and post incident testing.
In the last 12 months, DASA has conducted over 9,500 drug and alcohol tests at Linfox which have extended to all workers in both warehouse and transport environments.
Across the industry, DASA has a proven track record of implementing similar programs that detect, respond and prevent people from being impaired by drugs and alcohol while at work.
At its core, the DASA program is practical, compliant and flexible in providing:
- High-quality drug and alcohol testing 24/7 compliant with legislation and industry standards.
- An extensive national network of qualified collectors ready to conduct testing when and where it is needed, including roadside.
- Quick response to test requests to minimise workplace disruption.
- Evidence-based and engaging education material developed by experts to build awareness of drugs and alcohol.
DASA is proud of its ongoing partnership with Linfox to reduce drug and alcohol risks to keep people safe in the workplace.
