SHLS have developed a proven
strategy which fulfils all legal obligations and responsibilities
surrounding this subject which has already been adopted by many of
the UK’s leading employers.
Employers can be assured that by following this procedure they
will not infringe the Human Rights Act 1998 and that they will
benefit from a healthier, safer and more productive workplace.

workplace substance misuse policies and provide a 'TOTAL SOLUTION'
partnership approach for businesses wishing to tackle this subject.

It is important that both employees and
management are aware of the dangers of drug and alcohol abuse in
the workplace. The problematic indicators are often overlooked,
leading to an unnecessary amount of accidents and injuries, many of
which could have been prevented. SHLS offer a variety of training
programmes that suit all levels of staff, and offer training
education from substance misuse awareness, right through to alcohol
breathalyser training and chain of custody sample
collection. A detailed breakdown of the training courses
we provide can be found in the link below...
