We recommend that staff are not notified in advance of testing. Be Safe As screeners arrive discreetly, and the process begins once we are onsite and ready.
Most workplace drug and alcohol policies allow for random testing without prior warning. Employees are typically expected to comply with such requests. If an employee refuses or leaves the premises without completing the test, they are generally stood down pending further action, as outlined in your organisation’s policy.
We’ll support your team in communicating this clearly, calmly and fairly — with respect for all involved.

Saliva detects very recent use (1–2 days), ideal for incident/impairment testing.

Not with us.
At Be Safe As, we understand that drug and alcohol screening can feel intrusive or even intimidating if not handled correctly. That’s why we focus on professionalism, clarity, and calm communication.
We’re not here to accuse or confront — we’re here to help your workplace stay safe and compliant. Our screeners are trained to speak to all employees with respect and discretion, maintaining their dignity throughout the process.
There are no lectures, no power trips, and no assumptions — just a straightforward, fair testing process that fits your workplace culture.
This approach not only helps staff feel more comfortable, but also reduces complaints, anxiety, and disruption — all of which make life easier for your management team.
We treat every person with care and discretion. Whether it’s a high-stress role, cultural consideration, or prior trauma, our screeners know how to approach with calm, clarity and respect — not confrontation. We’re trauma-informed and values-led.

No — these tests are designed to detect tampering or dilution. Trying to mask results (e.g., through mouthwash or delaying tactics) can actually trigger an invalid or suspicious result, which is grounds for further lab testing.
We prioritise fairness, transparency, and accuracy — not just for the business, but for the individual being tested.
Test control lines use colloidal gold technology with superior sensitivity, accuracy and precision. Cross-reactivity is pretested against most drugs and other substances.
