Drug Driving Statistics

DrugWipe, our drug screener has been type-approved by the Home Office for use at the roadside. Over the past twelve months we have trained and supplied stock to all 44 of the police forces in Great Britain who now see DrugWipe as an integral part of their fight against drug drivers.

The articles below may be of interest to  H & S professionals, HR professionals, Fleet professionals who may be looking at ways to combat the very real risk of impaired employees undertaking safety critical roles at work.

It is clear from these articles to see that socially we have a problem and we also know from our work within employee screening, the issue is replicated in the workplace.

Dtec are proud of the work that we (and our DrugWipe) are doing to reduce the risk of drug driving and likewise are proud of the relationship we have with our existing workplace customer base of more than 300 companies.
