Construction, Mining & Energy

Managing risk is paramount in these high risk work environments. Operators in the construction, mining and energy sector face a high rate of work-related injuries. Drug and alcohol testing programs have been identified as useful tools in identifying individuals that may be at risk of injury or accident.

However, there can be many challenges to implementing a drug and alcohol program. Worker safety is critical and companies operate in a politically sensitive landscape with many diverse stakeholders. In our experience with construction, mining and energy operators, we understand that the workforce may be mobile and located in small numbers at numerous locations, often remote. Our network of directly employed collectors ensures we can deliver a consistent quality service wherever it’s required.

DASA-NZ also understands that ongoing education and training is critical to ensuring the workforce understands its obligations. We have a range of the most up to date educational and training material delivered in a variety of formats to suit all workplaces.
