Non-invasive
October 1st 2010 County Durham and Darlington Fire
and Rescue Service uses a Draeger
DDT5000 non-invasive drug testing
system for its employees. Previously a
third party was used to carry out
drugs testing. The new method is
reported to be easier, more cost
effective and less embarrassing to use.
"Using a simple oral fluid sampling
process, the Draeger DDT 5000 is a
lot easier to administer and there are
no issues over privacy or
embarrassment," says the Service's
risk reduction manager, Colin Bage.
"The system is also hygienic
producing fast results that are
unambiguous and are easily printed
out there and then, with a copy being
given to the donor and a further
printout being retained as part of the
accident investigation record." More articles from Draeger Safety UK Limited: |
