Across Australia, the responsibility to maintain a safe, compliant, and productive workplace is more challenging than ever. With increasing legislative oversight and growing awareness of the risks associated with drug and alcohol use at work, ensuring a zero-tolerance environment is not just a best practice — it’s a necessity.

At Relevant Drug Testing Solutions, we provide mobile drug and alcohol testing services designed to support safety professionals in achieving these goals efficiently, discreetly, and with minimal disruption to operations.


Why Mobile Drug Testing Matters More Than Ever

In safety-sensitive industries — such as construction, logistics, transport, mining, and manufacturing — impairment due to drugs or alcohol can have devastating consequences. It compromises not only the safety of the affected worker but also their colleagues, contractors, and the broader community.

Mobile drug testing services offer a modern solution that addresses multiple challenges faced by safety officers:

  • Convenience: Testing is performed directly at the workplace, eliminating the need for employees to travel off-site.
  • Reduced Downtime: Teams can return to work quickly, minimising loss of productivity.
  • Rapid Response: Post-incident or reasonable suspicion testing can be conducted promptly, preserving the integrity of results.
  • Confidentiality: On-site testing reduces the risk of stigma or gossip associated with off-site appointments.
  • Compliance: Our services meet or exceed the requirements of AS/NZS 4308:2023 (urine testing) and AS/NZS 4760:2019 (oral fluid testing), ensuring your workplace remains audit-ready.

Comprehensive On-Site Testing Options

At Relevant Drug Testing Solutions, we bring fully equipped mobile testing units directly to your premises or worksite. Our services include:

✅ Saliva (Oral Fluid) Testing

Saliva testing is ideal for detecting recent use and is our most popular testing method. It also allows for rapid screening and is commonly used in transport and logistics settings. Most commonly used for random testing.

✅ Instant Urine Drug Testing

Urine testing remains one of the most reliable methods for detecting recent and historical drug use. It is widely used for pre-employment testing.

✅ Breath Alcohol Testing

We use calibrated, Australian Standard–certified breathalysers to conduct instant, non-invasive alcohol testing, helping safety officers quickly assess fitness for duty.

✅ Laboratory Confirmations

Non-negative test results are sent to NATA-accredited laboratories for confirmation, with strict chain-of-custody protocols to ensure legal defensibility.


When Should Safety Officers Use Mobile Drug Testing?

Mobile drug testing is suitable for a range of scenarios:

  • Random Testing: An effective deterrent strategy that supports ongoing safety and compliance.
  • Pre-Employment Screening: Identify potential risks before hiring by testing new recruits.
  • Post-Incident Testing: Quickly determine whether drugs or alcohol may have contributed to an accident or near miss.
  • Reasonable Suspicion: If a worker exhibits signs of impairment, mobile testing allows for immediate evaluation.
  • Return-to-Work Testing: Ensure that employees returning from leave or treatment are fit for duty.

Our services are tailored to your site, shift patterns, and safety protocols — whether you operate 9-to-5 or 24/7.


Supporting with Policy and Education

Our role goes beyond testing. We partner with safety officers to build and maintain robust drug and alcohol programs that:

  • Comply with Australian legislation and industry standards
  • Define clear procedures for testing, reporting, and disciplinary action
  • Educate staff on the risks of drug and alcohol use
  • Protect both employers and employees from legal or reputational fallout

We can assist in drafting or reviewing your drug and alcohol policy, provide on-site toolbox talks, and offer ongoing guidance to support a culture of safety.
