Pre-employment
Benefits of Pre-employment testing
Pre-employment drug testing is an essential part of due diligence when hiring new staff. It provides a clear risk assessment of potential candidates and helps ensure that the right people are operating safely and responsibly within your business. Testing before employment protects your workplace from potential safety issues, liability, and productivity loss caused by substance use.
When combined with a well-structured drug and alcohol policy discussion, pre-employment testing helps set clear expectations from the start. It outlines acceptable behaviour before the first day of work begins and demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to safety and compliance. Simply put, it’s always better to stop risks before they enter your business.
North Queensland Drug Detection Process
At North Queensland Drug Detection (NQDD), we make the testing process straightforward and efficient. Bookings are recommended, but we also accept same-day appointments whenever possible to accommodate urgent testing needs. All collections are performed by our qualified and certified technicians, ensuring accuracy, confidentiality, and compliance with Australian standards.
Once testing is complete, results are available instantly. In the event of a non-negative result, samples can be securely sent to a NATA-accredited laboratory for confirmation testing, providing legally defensible and fully verified results. Whether testing is carried out on-site or at our clinic, NQDD ensures a fast, professional, and reliable experience from start to finish.
