Need a compliant crew on site?
Planned works or emergency response, we mobilise across South East Queensland and Northern NSW.
Fitness for work, verified on site
Drug and alcohol management built into every shift
Working on or near live traffic demands a clear head. Our on-site drug and alcohol testing and workplace drug and alcohol management program covers every crew member before they start work, not just at induction, so every shift begins with a fit-for-work team.
Testing is carried out by trained personnel to recognised industry procedures, with results recorded and any non-conformance managed immediately and discreetly. Combined with fatigue management for night and extended shifts, it’s one more layer of the safety-governed operating model that sits behind every Safe Traffic Management crew.
For government, civil and utilities clients, this isn’t just internal good practice, it’s often a contractual requirement. Our records are audit-ready, so if a principal contractor or regulator asks for evidence of fitness-for-work compliance, we can produce it on demand.

Questions, answered
The things clients ask most before engaging a traffic management partner. Need something specific to your site? Talk to our team.
Do you drug and alcohol test on every site, or only on request?
On-site drug and alcohol testing before crews start work is standard practice on every engagement, not something you need to request separately.
What happens if someone returns a non-negative result?
A clear, discreet non-conformance procedure applies immediately, including stand-down and a defined return-to-work process, so the incident is managed without disrupting the rest of the crew’s shift.
Is testing carried out by a qualified provider?
Yes, testing follows recognised industry procedures and is carried out by trained personnel.
How does this fit with fatigue management on night shifts?
Fitness-for-work covers both drug and alcohol testing and fatigue management together, particularly important on night works and extended shifts where fatigue risk is higher.
Can you provide records of testing for our compliance file?
Yes, results and any actions taken are documented and available on request for principal contractors and regulators.
Is workplace drug and alcohol management part of your standard SWMS?
Yes, it’s built into our operating model and referenced in our site-specific SWMS & risk assessments, not treated as a separate add-on.
