Drug and Alcohol Testing in the Modern Age

Drug and alcohol testing has evolved since the 1980s when it began to be used as a test of competency to use machinery and to work with those who do, as well. Today, equipment is far better than it used to be. For example, if alcohol could not be smelled on your breath, then you were not considered intoxicated. Anybody who abused small doses of illicit drugs and could still maintain a steady and proper outward appearance was not considered a drug abuser. What are some of the more refined tools available for use today?

Saliva Drug Test

Saliva drug tests are quick, easy and efficient. The screening window is short, and therefore this is the preferred testing method by many substance abusers. Saliva drug testing detects the unprocessed, un-metabolized drug within your body, and can infer the active drug is still being processed by your system. This is an excellent way of detecting and eliminating employees who are immediately under the influence of a drug and can cause physical danger or fatality as a result of their overall impairment. CMM Technology offers a variety of saliva drug tests and drug test kits: Saliva Starter Kit, Oraline Saliva Drug Test, iScreen Saliva Drug Test, and DrugWipe 5+.

Urine Drug Test

Urine drug testing is the more traditional version of drug testing. Adulterants are substances which should not legally be found in food, drinks or any type of fuel to which humans are exposed. If the individual receiving the product is okay with the addition, then it is known as a food additive. Otherwise, adulterants are considered to be poison. CMM Technology offers Urine Starter Kits, Medix Pro-Split Cup 6+6 with Adulterant Tests, Medix Pro-Split Cup with Hinged Lid, and independent Adulterant Tests.

Alcohol Testing

Alcohol testing is important because even a small level of intoxication can lead to mismanagement of employees, coworkers, clients and important machinery within your business. CMM Technology offers disposable breath and saliva analyzers, handheld breathalyzers, and wall-mounted breathalyzers…all to fit your speed of production and number of employees. You can customize any program to fit your specific company requirements and convenience.

Designer Shoes…Designer Fashion…But Designer Drugs?

You have heard of designer shoes, designer fashion and may be the band Designer Drugs, if you are an Australian clubber and music follower, but have you heard of designer drugs?  This is yet another term that employers should be aware of because these are powerful illicit drugs. They are called designer drugs because they are created for the purpose of circumventing the drug laws.

The designer drugs are a bit tricky because they will give the drug user the same kind of experience that other illegal drugs are meant to generate. The designer drugs, though, are synthetic drugs in which as little as one molecule may have been modified in the molecular structure thus creating a new drug form. Most of the laws specifically name drugs that are illegal so these new drugs are technically not illegal for a while.

Popular designer drugs that have shown up include ketamine, GHB and K2 to name a few.

•                   Ketamine – Ketamine is a dissociative anaesthetic drug designed originally for veterinary use, but that became popular with drug users when it was discovered to have hallucinogenic properties causing similar effects as those achieved with PCP.  It causes dreamlike states by distorting sight and sound perceptions. It is usually injected intramuscularly or is snorted.
•                   GHB – Gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) is a central nervous system depressant that is actually a natural substance present in the brain in very small concentrations. High doses of this drug produce a sedative effect. It is usually taken orally as a liquid or powder but may be snorted also.
•                 K2 – A substitute for marijuana, it is a mixture of herbs and chemicals that is smoked. It affects the central nervous system and mimics the affects achieved when smoking marijuana.

Just recently the University of New South Wales reported that the use of ecstasy is declining. That is good news except that the study conducted indicated the decline is due to the fact that there is a new range of Australian designer drugs. These include mephedrone which is that infamous one molecule different from an amphetamine. Referred to as miaow or bubbles, it is a synthetic stimulant.

It is amazing to note that one of the main reason ecstasy use is falling is that drug users are reporting that it is being sold with much less purity. In other words, the ecstasy is not delivering the desired effects, so more powerful and dangerous synthetic drugs are designed.

Not Fit for Human Consumption

One of the interesting facts about these designer drugs is that new ones appear on the drug scene regularly, and they are often first sold on the internet. Labelled as plant food that is “not fit for human consumption”, these drugs are temporarily and technically legal. Eventually the law catches up and adds the designer drugs to its list of illicit substances.

When you choose to do random or blanket drug testing as an employer, your goal is not to catch those breaking the law, but rather to protect the safety of workers and the workplace. The designer drugs can negatively impact learning ability, attention, motor function, memory and some may cause hallucinations. That is not the kind of condition you want your employees to be in whilst they are working.

The concern is whether the saliva drug test or the urine drug test can detect these designer drugs.  It’s impossible to say yes or no to this question. The answer is that a quality state-of-the-art drug testing laboratory will develop drug testing equipment to detect these substances once it is discovered they exist.

Talk to the Testing Laboratory Professionals

There certainly may be a short period in which a brand new designer drug is sold and is not detectable, but it won’t remain undetectable for long. Saliva and/or urine drug test can currently detect ketamine, K2 and mephedrone. GHB can be detected but is not considered a routine drug test (as of right now).  That can certainly change if it is determined its use has become extensive.

CMM Technology (http://www.cmm.com.au/) works hand-in-hand with employers to insure that current drug testing equipment is current and effective at detecting the popular drugs whether they are “designer” quality or not. You can contact the CMM Technology professionals and discuss any concerns you may have about the types of drugs employees may be using on or off the job.

What is Ketamine and How Does It Work?

Ketamine is a drug which binds to mu opioid receptors in the brain, and is used in both medical and veterinary practices. Ketamine is an NMDA (N-Methyl-D-Aspartate) receptor antagonist, which is used as a type of anesthetic on both humans and animals. It produces a dissociative state, euphoria and hallucinations.

What is an NMDA receptor antagonist?

An NMDA receptor is ionotropic and facilitates the transfer of electrical signaling between neurons in the spinal column and the brain. In other words, this receptor helps communication, including sensory communication, travel between your mind and the rest of your body. An NMDA receptor antagonist blocks this communication and therefore acts as a euphoric or anesthetic agent.

What are the side effects of Ketamine abuse?

Ketamine reacts with the body similarly to PCP (phencyclidine) and DXM (dextromethorphan), except that it is very quick acting and does not last as long as PCP or DXM. In strong doses, Ketamine only affects the physiology for approximately two hours. Because of the heavy neurological activity, long-term abuse is correlated with partial or heavy memory loss. Short-term abuse is correlated with confusion, disorientation, spiritual experiences, numbness, dissociation, euphoria, and altered perception of reality. Physiological side effects include respiratory depression, increased heart rate, and loss of coordination, hypertension and sedation.

Where did Ketamine originate?

In 1962, PCP was causing seizures and neurotoxicity, so the pharmaceutical company, Parke-Davis, developed Ketamine in order to find a safer anesthesia. The recreational use of Ketamine increased toward the end of the twentieth-century, and was especially popular in raves. Ketamine-based pharmaceutical brands include Ketalar, Ketmex, Astrapin, Imalgen, Ketaset, and Ketotal. 

How Do I know if someone is Abusing Ketamine?

The neurological side effects of Ketamine are fairly obvious, dissociative mental states, loss of sensory perception and loss of motor coordination being the primary indicators of abuse. If an individual has overdosed on any drug, your first step must be to call your local medical services. While you are waiting for their arrival, you must monitor the individual carefully to determine breathing and heart rate. Keep them warm and perform any emergency medical procedures which you know, such as CPR, in order to stabilize them as best you can. 

CMM Technology provides quality drug and alcohol testing equipment to businesses which require these services. If your employees are exhibiting abnormal behavior or if you simply wish to install a program to keep your staff clean and productive, drug and alcohol testing is highly recommended. We are here to help you with your safety protocol. Contact CMM Technology today: +618-9204-2500.

How To Use Onsite Drug and Alcohol Testing

Workplace Drug Test

CMM Technology is committed to providing your business with high quality drug and alcohol testing equipment. However, you may be wondering about actual implementation of these testing procedures. This is really very simple. Onsite drug and alcohol testing is far preferable to sending all of your employees to a laboratory, a time-consuming and unproductive practice. Laboratory test results can take quite a while, your employees have to wait for long periods of time in order to complete the process, transportation must be arranged and possibly time off of work must be obtained. This will slow your productivity and your staff may feel resentful about the extra hassle. The solution: onsite drug testing where your employees do not have to leave their place of employment in order to fulfill safety protocol. It is convenient, it is cost effective, and it is more pleasant for everyone. What are the steps which you should take?

1. Determine your schedule and available times for testing

Our sister company, Mediscreen, offers onsite testing 24/7. This is not only convenient for certain industries with high percentages of night laborers, but it ensures flexibility and commitment to your schedule.

2. Determine the available annual budget for your workplace drug and alcohol testing

Mediscreen can adjust how often per year that you schedule your testing, according to your specific company needs. This means that onsite drug and alcohol testing is available for small businesses, as well as large corporations. There is no need to overextend you in order to order testing services or testing equipment. Both Mediscreen and CMM Technology are here for you.

3. Ask questions before you begin!

You may find unexpected surprises if you begin any business relationship without questioning and examining all of your subjective assumptions. Surprises are not always pleasant! Make sure that you receive full explanations and documentation of testing procedures, where the testing equipment will be stored, employee records and security protocols. Onsite testing includes the benefit of storing employee records on company property, which many employees may find more reassuring and private than storing their records offsite. Include payment arrangements and scheduling reminders among your questions. Also remember to ask about the coordinator who will take care of the requirements for your specific company. Make sure that this individual is someone with whom you wish to continue your business relationship and ask to speak with them directly before continuing with your plans.

Doesn’t Drug and Alcohol Testing Take Up Company Time?

Drug free workplace, Workplace drug test

When planning the operations of your business, your main concern will be consumption and acquirement of resources. Even if you have a brilliant business strategy, you must balance the cost and the benefits in order to make a profit. The expression “time is money” is appropriate in both professional and private achievements. At any point in time, you are either spending time on a task or money to make sure that the task is performed. You spend money to hire employees so that you do not have to do spend time doing all of the tasks yourself. Even if you wanted to, sometimes there simply are not enough hours in the day. You know that balancing time and money requires a great deal of planning and strategy. How can you implement drug and alcohol testing effectively?

Research and Investigation

There is no way around it: if you are shopping for a vehicle or a home, you must research and investigate every possibility. To not do so would be irresponsible and reckless. Such an enormous investment cannot be taken lightly and your current resources must be managed in such a way that you receive the most out of your purchase per the amount which you pay. This is simply common sense. Why should your company be any different? Your company is an investment and your participation with your business is an ongoing investment. Every day, you sink more time into it and reap more money. Anything which affects this “portfolio” must be examined thoroughly. Do your research on your drug and alcohol testing company. Call our offices and ask plenty of questions. We are here to serve you, not vice versa.

Streamline Operations

It is recommended that you use an onsite drug testing company. CMM Technology offers equipment for all of your onsite needs. The employee drug and alcohol testing can come to you, rather than spending extra money and company time accomplishing this offsite. Onsite testing decreases professional and personal time which would be spent at a laboratory. Bring the entire operation to you, store employee records onsite for privacy and accessibility preferences, and keep it simple. Sometimes, the more you complicate an operation, the more you become bogged down in the details and the more time is spent on a procedure which should have been quick and efficient.

Doing your research and streamlining your testing methods will decrease company time spent on drug and alcohol testing. Of course, it will also be cheaper. Call us today: +618-9204-2500.

Your Policy and Products

alert J5 personal breathalyser, lion alcoblow

Current views on workplace drug and alcohol policies point to a range of initiatives that suit the individual needs of a particular business or industry site/model. Rather than a single-focus approach that templates out a drug and alcohol policy in a generic fashion, each specific industry or business requires the address of multiple factors that keep abreast of current research, views and legislative and legal issues relating to AOD’s and their impact on a workplace’s health and safety. Such an approach mitigates employer responsibilities in light of duty of care and allows for appropriate protection against potential litigation or culpability.

While this is true, the underpinnings of a multi-faceted approach must be founded on current guides and legalities that outline employers’ roles and responsibilities in a clear fashion. For example, employers must ensure “the health and welfare of all employees by providing:

• A safe workplace environment
• Safe work systems and procedures
• Information, instruction, training and supervision of all employees
• A process of consulting with employees, involving them in decisions and informing them of decisions that may affect their health and safety
• Processes for identifying hazards, assessing risks and elimination or control of risks
• Processes for regular review of risk control measures

The details of the actual machinations and implementation of these facets of the approach may be site specific, whilst the legislative guidelines and underpinnings remain fixed. The approach to drug and alcohol policy development links in with the need for a clear identification of hazards and risks, and the elimination and control of these risks. Constructive address of this may indeed involve drug testing. In short, “the decision to use alcohol and other drug testing should be made in consultation with employees, OHS representatives and union representatives. Agreement may be sought where a risk assessment has identified that there are risks involved in undertaking certain activities whilst under the influence of alcohol and other drugs.”

The mode of testing required will depend on site, site culture, remoteness, economic considerations, gender issues and a host of other factors. Portable testing products, on-site wall fitted units, oral saliva drug test or urinalysis testing are just a small selection of options and considerations that businesses, industry and work environments need to consider when modeling a drug testing program as part of an overall risk management strategy and OHS policy.

CMM Technology offers a range of testing products that can be adapted to individualized workplace AOD procedures and policies.

Alcohol testing products such as the hand-held Alcosense Precision Breathalyser, engineered with an electrochemical fuel cell that “can measure the concentration of alcohol exhaled from human breath precisely and accurately to three decimal points,” is a portable and cost-effective unit particularly suited to small business that may not require the overheads of a more advanced and stationary breathalyser model. It portability may also be favoured by law enforcement and the medical profession.

Alternatively, the Wall Mounted Breathalyser BTA-30-DAS-I is a high end model favoured in heavy industry where a rugged, fast and accurate mode of breath testing is required. The rapid throughput (with two tests per minute) allows for installation at site gates, therefore streamlining and minimising the intrusion of alcohol breath testing in a large-scale workplace or environment. This model requires no off-site recalibration, which leads to both time and cost savings for larger businesses and industries.

The Ethics of Urine Drug Testing

Drug & Alcohol Test, lion SD 400,lion SD 500,alert J5 personal breathalyser

While there is often debate surround the ethics of AOD testing, CMM Technology welcomes open discussion, viewing it as an opportunity to refine and define current practices and enter into accurate dialogue. This in turn leads to objective appraisal of drug and alcohol testing, and allows us to weigh up health and safety issues against oft-cited civil liberties and privacy issues and the accusation of potential for violations.

In “Drug Use and Monitoring in Australia (DUMA) Toni Makkai cites criticism in recent years that urinalysis testing is “dehumanizing, an infringement of civil rights, and may also undermine trust.”

But is this really the case?

And how is it justifiable for the inappropriate actions of one individual and their subsequent privacy rights to be placed ahead of the rights of all?  In essence, this is a jurisprudential and ethical issue that requires consideration and rectification.

The modern industrial and workplace climate is one of complexity, streamlining, heavy workloads and individual and team pressure and performance. And more than ever, industry and business is required to adhere to adequate legislative and statutory guidelines that encompass adequate duty of care and the ongoing occupational health and safety of the workplace. Even in areas where legislation does not exist in relation to drug and alcohol testing, the onus is still firmly on industry and business to deliver quality safety and security measures for its workplace community.

In 2006, Griffith University’s Professor Tim Prenzler’s presented new research focusing on the views of Senior Police in relation to urine and other drug testing. And, “while drug and alcohol testing programs had been used in a number of jurisdictions as a means of revealing and deterring police corruption, tests were being criticised as unethical, especially in terms of entrapment”. However, as is outlined in the study, new evidence and statistical research in fact showed “drug and alcohol testing received very strong support. Overall, the results showed willingness on the part of police leaders to embrace radical measures to combat corruption…and drug usage.” Therefore, when a thorough study was performed and presented – one that moved beyond the day to day hearsay of office and workplace commentary – use of urine drug test as an ethically viable means of detection received profound and consistent support from police employees and management.

Perhaps, as Prenzler’s study indicates, when push really comes to shove, we recognise the need to support and safeguard best practice procedures for the benefit of all.

CMM Technology offers groundbreaking urinalysis procedures and products for your business concern.

Drug Focus – Cannabis

drug test kits, breathalyser, alcohol test

 Most individuals have a clear understanding of pot, dope, hash or the familiar and colloquial terms used to describe marijuana. But how many are actually aware of the chemical make-up and the effects of this apparently “harmless” plant?  Is marijuana a congenial little green tree that should be welcomed onto balconies and into backyards across Australia, as is currently the case in the Australian Capital Territory, or is it more of a safety and health concern than originally thought?

According to the National Cannabis Prevention and Information Centre based in Rand wick, Sydney, “there are a range of health and social harms associated with cannabis use. In recent times there has also been a marked increase in presentations to specialist alcohol and other drug treatment services for problems associated with it.” Marijuana, with its the chemical compound THC (cannabinoid) that gives the “high,” is the most commonly used drug in our country, and over 600,000 Australians have smoked it or imbibed it in the past seven days. In addition, 49.5% of 20-29 year old have at some time, used the drug.

And of concern to industry and business is that 13.5% of the workforce has used cannabis at some point, with a greater proportion of trade’s people using cannabis than any other occupation. Both short and long term effects of the drug are known to impact workplace safety, team morale and appropriate decision-making. Significantly, the following side effects commonly associated with THC may pose an even increased risk in relation to heavy machinery and vehicular operations in areas such as mining, transport, aviation etc:

•              Short-term memory problems
•              Impaired thinking
•              Loss of balance and co-ordination
•              Decreased concentration
•              Changes in sensory perception
•               Impaired ability to perform complex tasks
•               Decreased alertness
•               Decreased reaction time. 

Pidd, in “Drugs and Alcohol Abuse and Testing of Workers for the Presence of Drugs and Alcohol,” states that “research evidence links hazardous and/or harmful use with negative outcomes for both individuals and work organisations…illness and injury, accidents, high absenteeism, prosecution under OHS legislation, risk of litigation, poor performance, bad publicity, low morale and low productivity.” 

In addition, long term effects include:

•                   Increased risk of respiratory disease including lung cancer
•                  Decreased memory and learning abilities
•                  Decreased motivation in areas such as study, work, concentration
•                  Possible exacerbation of mental health issues and psychosis

Drug Testing for THC in both urine and oral saliva specimens is now legislated for, and implemented in many industries throughout Australia. CMM Technology delivers accurate testing using the Oraline Saliva Drug Test which can identify bio-available drug traces that are still recent and “active” within the body. It also delivers urinalysis test products such as the Medix Integrated Pro-Split tests, which successfully identify leftover metabolites in the urine. These products are also accompanied by new testing processes for the increasingly problematic synthetic cannabinoid compounds – JWH-018, JWH-073, JWH-250 (marketed in Australia under the brand name Kronic,) that are gaining popularity in certain sectors.

 

Road Trauma and Substance Abuse…A Case for Drug Testing

Employee Drug Testing

Alcohol and driving don’t mix. Anyone who is paying attention to the government news reports and public service messages knows that. The 2001 National Drug Strategy Household Survey estimated that one-third of driver and pedestrian deaths are connected to alcohol. Alcohol is also associated with up to 11% of workplace injuries or impaired work performance, absenteeism and productivity.

Now combine the abuse of alcohol and drugs and the picture is even grimmer. A special presentation to the Parliament of Australia House of Representatives on road trauma over a 10-year period reports that in addition to the one-third of road deaths attributed to alcohol, another 8 percent were due to the use of drugs. The most common drugs found in drivers who are killed in road accidents are benzodiazepines, amphetamines and cannabis. The risk of a fatal accident increases by 2.7 times with marijuana use and 2.3 times with use of stimulants.

As an employer, do you want to hand the keys to a business owned vehicle to an employee under the influence of alcohol and drugs? Obviously the answer is a resounding “no”, and yet it happens.  Alcohol, marijuana, stimulants and other drugs impair:

•                 Motor functions like hand-eye coordination
•                 Time perception
•                 Space perception
•                 Mental awareness of surrounding events
•               Cognition or the ability to transform visual signals into thoughts or actions

There were a couple of very interesting results that were reported to Parliament that have implications for employers concerned with worker safety on Australian roads. The first surprise was that 73.5 percent of drivers arrested for traffic offences in the study did not  believe they would be caught driving under the influence whilst using marijuana, amphetamines, cocaine or heroin, yet 89 percent surveyed knew that alcohol increased their chances of getting caught.

People are less aware of the consequences of drug use, as opposed to alcohol use, on driving ability. The implications for employers are clearly that alcohol and drug testing programs are essential for worker safety and should include employees operating outside of the regular workplace as well as inside. Another important implication is that the supervisor and employee training programs should incorporate information concerning the negative impact of alcohol and drug use on the ability to safely operate a motor vehicle of any kind.

It is unfortunate that society has focused primarily on alcohol and neglected to address drug use though that is rapidly changing. Anti-alcohol public campaigns have raised awareness of the dangers of driving whilst under the influence of alcohol. Yet a more recent study on drugs and driving in Australia commissioned by the Australia Drug Foundation and the national insurer AAMI indicated that people are still not aware of the dangers of driving whilst using illicit or prescription drugs. One of the findings was that most people had no idea how long they should wait between using a drug that can impact motor and cognitive skills and driving.

Random drug testing by the police has proven to be an effective countermeasure against driving under the influence of alcohol. It is now being used to deter driving whilst under the influence of drugs also. A survey indicated that the risk of being caught was a significant deterrent to drug driving. As many as 38.5 percent of cannabis users chose to not drive out of worry of being caught. The numbers were 45.4 percent of methamphetamine users and 41.5 percent of those who chose to use ecstasy.

Employers also need to use random alcohol and drug testing for the same reasons the police are using them. Employers can use products like the DrugWipe 5+ in the workplace or the Oraline Saliva test and detect use of marijuana, opiates, cocaine, amphetamines and ecstasy…all known to impair driving ability. When coupled with alcohol testing using the Lion Alcoblow, you can hand the keys to a company vehicle to an employee knowing you have done everything you can to keep the employee and other road users safe.

CMM Technology at http://www.cmm.com.au/ has quality alcohol and testing equipment that can play an important role in an employer’s efforts to minimise the number of road accidents and fatalities due to substance abuse. An alcohol and drug employee information program should be coupled with blanket and random testing for maximum results.

Objectivity – a Key Drug Testing Requirement

Recalibration, Saliva Drug Test, Breathalyser

It is a well known fact a correlation exists between inappropriate alcohol and other drug usage, and stress and anxiety. In today’s modern world stress is a fact of life, and managing it appropriately in the workplace must be considered as a priority. But how do we manage this issue with the kind of objectivity that is required by both the paid workforce and by management?

In 2010, The Australian Work and Life Index (AWALI) discovered “the majority of workers say they are frequently (often or almost always) rushed and pressed for time. Two-thirds of full-time women, and half of full-time men, and more than half of part-time women and a third of part time men lay claim to these statistics.” But in relation to shift work and the mining industry, and the accompanying stresses due to family dislocation and week on/week off rostering, this “rush effect’ and consequent AOD issues may be even greater than that of the general workforce population What then, are the implications for productivity, health and ongoing work satisfaction of employees and that work environment?

One of the key recommendations of the AWALI survey was the need for “managers, educators and governments to consider giving much greater attention to the promulgation of models of good practice in relation to work-life friendly practices and the development and use of reliable metrics to measure the effects of changes in policy and practice.” These models of practice need to be CREDIBLE and RELIABLE, and also need to adhere to objectivity in an effort to balance out potential conflicts or disharmonies between employers and employees.

And as part of this approach, it may well be the case that recent changes in policy and/or practice in Australia in relation to independently executed drug and alcohol workplace testing augurs well for future health of employees. In Fitness for Duty in the Mining Industry -A Legal Perspective, Bilal and Elgar state that use of appropriate drug testing methods can form part of a healthy fitness for work program:

·                 Employers should ensure any testing procedures for drugs and alcohol, adopted in a program are CREDIBLE and RELIABLE. Consider the use of EXTERNAL PROVIDERS, as they are more likely to be seen as conducting their work at arm’s length from the employer.

CMM Technology provides credible, thorough and reliable workplace drug testing. As an external provider, CMM is able to ensure the degree of independence and objectivity that is required in order to maintain healthy workplace relations between management and employees on site and on the ground in the day to day operations of an industry or business.
