Many companies and employers use alcohol testing as a deterrent to discourage alcohol abuse in the workplace and as a means to improve safety. By performing random workplace alcohol testing, it is possible to identify alcohol abusers before an accident occurs and sanction the necessary treatment.
Recent studies have shown the detrimental effects that alcohol can have in the workplace.
Alcohol misuse at work can reduce productivity, increase sickness and absenteeism, damage the reputation of the business and put employees and members of the public in unnecessary danger.
AlphaBiolabs can help you to create a bespoke workplace alcohol testing programme for your business and implement this policy for a fully managed solution.
Why wait for your laboratory confirmations?
We know how important a workplace alcohol testing policy is to the employees, the business and all stakeholders involved.
We also understand the disruption that can be caused if key personnel provide a positive sample.
That’s why we have developed a rapid testing service to provide laboratory confirmation results, if required.

Workplace alcohol test sample collection
We have a dedicated, fully qualified sample collection team available every day of the year.
Chain of custody procedures are followed to ensure that confidentiality remains throughout the whole testing process.
Chain of custody also means that our workplace alcohol testing results are legally defensible. This is particularly imperative if the person being tested is likely to take legal action to contest the results of the alcohol test.
We can also train a representative of your own staff to perform workplace alcohol testing and sample collection to the highest standards. Competency training is also available for members of your staff already trained in sample collection.
Breath alcohol testing
AlphaBiolabs has a number of devices we can use for breath alcohol testing dependent on your individual needs.
The person being tested for alcohol use blows into a breath alcohol device, and the results are given as a digital readout.
The readout is a number, known as the breath alcohol concentration (BAC), which shows the level of alcohol in the breath at the time the test was taken. It does not measure past use of alcohol.
