Implementation and Workforce Consultation

Implementing a new Drug and Alcohol Management System, or making significant changes to an existing one, must be done in consultation with the workforce, as with any safety system. However, it requires more than simply advising of the new system or uploading onto your platform. Drug and alcohol testing often raises significant questions and concerns from employees and managers alike. Navigating this needs to be done carefully and appropriately.

Work Options can facilitate this legally mandated consultation process for you with your employees, managers and employee representatives, to ensure you meet your consultation obligations.

You can be comforted by the significant experience of our implementation experts who understand the varying concerns and needs of employees and managers. They have done this a lot and will guide you safely through the obstacles, skilfully navigating to ensure a smooth and compliant consultation process.
