Minimally invasive Drug & Alcohol Testing

Drug & Alcohol Testing for Mines, Schools and the Workplace
The minimally invasive oral fluid drug and alcohol test from OralTox’s collection process is easy to administer at mines, schools or the workplace while providing highly accurate results. Using oral fluid, the collector can oversee a donor as they provide the oral fluid sample. This reduces the likelihood of tampering or cheating as well as a donor challenge later in the drug testing process.
This was the case with a planned drug test at a school resulting in a learner trying to cheat the drug test by using a willing friend’s urine sample instead of his own. The friend’s urine sample was placed in a zip-sealed bag in the learner’s pocket and this could easily be used in the bathroom as a replacement for his own urine sample. Unfortunately, the friend’s urine tested positive for drugs and a lot of explaining had to be done by both the learners.
This same drug test can also be used for teachers or other personal that are suspected to be using drugs. Infringing on the privacy of a colleague is eliminated when using the oral fluid test from OralTox available from Risk Diversion. And if the test is negative, maybe your colleague is just tired.
Miners also tried to cheat a standard alcohol blow test by using mouth wash before a test, resulting in an inaccurate measurement of 100% alcohol in his blood.
Observed collection would have eliminated all the above-mentioned situations and removes administrative tasks including staffing allocation to ensure same gender collectors, testing anywhere removes the need for controlled/private restrooms or collection areas, etc.
