Why test at pre-employment?
Whether drug and alcohol testing is a regulatory requirement or best practice in your industry, Resile is able to assist.
Organisations are required to ensure their workforce is able to safely perform the essential and inherent duties of their role with significant risk of harm to themselves or others.
Drug and alcohol testing can assist in supporting a policy to manage risks associated with drug and alcohol use.
Pre-employment assessment is the first step in your risk management approach, and is best supported by a comprehensive Drug and Alcohol Policy.
Periodic unannounced testing supports your policy on an ongoing basis, acting as a deterrent to usage prohibited by your policy.
Best practise screening
Need a drug and alcohol test? We provide a pre-employment drug and alcohol screening service, performed by trained collectors and contracted onsite services for periodic unannounced testing.
For drug screening at point of collection we offer a six-panel instant urine screen or oral fluid screen as required by your policy.
Alcohol breath testing is conducted using calibrated alcohol testing devices, similar to law enforcement devices.

In fact, there is a specialist course for doctors for two days to train doctors in the interpretation. Medical review officers (specially trained doctors) are best placed to assist in the interpretation of results and advice on management of individuals in line with your organisation’s policy.
