Managers’ Awareness Training Course
This delivers a general company induction on drug and alcohol awareness which can be delivered company-wide or to key stakeholders such as managers, supervisors or CEOs. This package is ideal for company’s rolling out a new AOD (Alcohol and Other Drugs) policy and procedure, or to refresh an existing policy.
A well-informed manager is your first line of protection.
Recent court decisions have highlighted a critical point: when it comes to managing drug and alcohol risk in the workplace, education isn’t optional — it’s essential. Read more in our blog post.
Advance Diagnostics’ Manager’s Awareness Training gives leaders the tools to apply policies confidently, understand testing procedures, and ensure fair, legally sound processes.
In Mr Jethro Aisa v Southern Cross Protection Pty Ltd, dismissal was upheld not solely due to a positive test result, but because the employer followed a clear, consistent, and fair process.
A written policy is important — but it’s the training behind it that ensures it’s applied effectively.
