Employers have a legal duty to protect employees’ health, safety and welfare. Understanding the signs of drug and alcohol misuse (or abuse) will help you to manage health and safety risk in your workplace, develop a policy to deal with drug and alcohol-related problems and support your employees. – Health and Safety Executive (HSE.gov.uk)

Drug and Alcohol Awareness Training Courses and Workshops
Pick a course that is right for YOU.
Please contact us for course availability and pricing. The training can be customised to your specifications, but typically our awareness courses cover the following areas:
When management have been trained, many companies also opt for us to cascade the information down to all members of staff in 40 minute briefings / drug awareness classes with approximately 10-15 minutes for questions. This allows us to address all questions and concerns that the workforce has and makes your policy that much more robust because it has been explained to all members of staff.
These briefings are carried out in blocks of either half days at £347 plus VAT for 4 hourly sessions, or full days at £897 plus VAT for 8 hourly sessions. These sessions can accommodate up to 60 people, provided you have the space to gather them all together. If you require more than 8 hourly sessions in a day, you may add up to a further 2 for £75 plus VAT per additional briefing.
