Drug use in Melbourne
Illegal drugs in Melbourne are clearly a big problem, with arrests and drug seizures in Brunswick West, Coburg, Pascoe Vale, Hadfield, Fawkner, Campbellfield, Sunshine, and Keilor.
While heroin is the number one killer in illegal drugs, pharmaceuticals are what take up a huge percentage of drug deaths in Victoria. Benzodiazepines are largely attributed to overdose deaths of males aged 25-34.
Now consider the statistics that almost 70% of all drug users are employed. Further, we know that no industry is safe. You really cannot be certain just how many of your own employees or colleagues could be suffering from addiction and drug dependency.
Therefore, you want to protect your employees from the dangers of drug abuse with a comprehensive workplace drug and alcohol testing program.

The rates of drug-induced and drug-related deaths in Australia are staggering. And the shocking user demographics show us that a huge percentage of Australians belong to the workforce.
As an employer, it is your responsibility to safeguard your business and your employees from the dangers of drug use.
By implementing a drug-safe program, you are sending the message that you care for your workers. By providing a safe and healthy workplace for your employees, you are showing that you value them.
You can achieve a safe and healthy work environment by establishing a comprehensive drug and alcohol program.
It will not only keep your employees safe but also protect your business by reducing your risk of legal liabilities. For example, in the case of an accident involving an employee’s drug use.
