Supporting Safer, Smarter Workplaces
Alcohol testing isn’t just about compliance; it’s about protecting people and preventing risks before they become incidents. Our breath tests provide immediate results, giving employers confidence that their staff are fit for duty. Passive tests are ideal for quick, contact-free screening, while active tests offer exact readings of blood alcohol concentration. Both methods follow strict chain-of-custody protocols to ensure confidentiality and reliability.
Transport, mining, construction and hospitality workplaces depend on regular breath tests to maintain safety and meet industry requirements. By identifying potential risks early, employers safeguard their teams and uphold company standards. Send us an enquiry today to learn more about the testing options available or to schedule a visit. We can also assist with court-ordered testing.
FAQ
What’s the difference between passive and active breath tests?
Passive breath tests detect alcohol in the air around a person and are commonly used for quick, non-invasive screenings. Active breath tests involve blowing into a mouthpiece to determine an exact blood alcohol concentration. Passive testing is often used for large groups, while active testing provides the precision needed for legal or workplace documentation. Both follow AS 3547:2019 standards for accuracy.
How reliable are workplace breath tests?
When performed with calibrated, approved equipment and trained collectors, workplace breath tests are highly accurate. Devices meeting AS 3547:2019 standards undergo strict calibration and quality checks to ensure dependable readings. Results appear instantly, and any positive readings can be confirmed through additional testing for legal certainty.
How long can alcohol be detected in a breath test?
Alcohol is typically detectable on a breath test for up to 12 hours after consumption, though timing varies based on body type, food intake and amount consumed. Some residual alcohol can remain even after someone feels sober, so it’s always safest to wait before operating vehicles or machinery.
