Training and Awareness

We recognise that organisations care about the safety and wellness of their employees. We are extremely proud of the courses and support packages that we have developed and we have a proven track record of enabling large organisations to understand the severity of Drug and Alcohol misuse within the workplace.

 

Proactive training and education within the workforce can help organisations to implement and enforce a strict, robust Drug and Alcohol ethos and policy. Teaching employees to understand the signs and recognise impairment symptoms provides an active deterrent throughout the business and can help to protect employees and the business, reducing the risk of incidents and disruption to your business.

 

 

We can provide Drug and Alcohol Training and Awareness courses tailored to suit your business needs as required and may include some or all of the following:

 

    • As part of an implementation plan for your Drug and Alcohol testing program

 

    • As specific training of managers and supervisors to give them the ‘tools’ to make decisions regarding someone’s potential fitness for work.

 

    • General Awareness programs for employees
      • Providing education and information around substances and their impact on employees, families and colleagues.

 

    • We can train your staff to manage and coordinate the Drug and Alcohol program – ‘in house’

 

We want to help you reduce risk and achieve a safer substance free workplace. We can provide the education, advice, ongoing testing and support for your organisation, offering a range of courses and support packages ranging from basic awareness training, chain of custody training to more comprehensive interactive sessions.

 

Our training courses are developed against the background of agreed international best practice, are CPD accredited and recommended by the Aero-medical Department of the UAE (GCAA).
