Safety and screening

Workplace drug screening and site safety tests

Blokhaus places people in many roles where safety is the primary operational concern.

To do this confidently, we now offer various safety-focused screening services.

Drug testing

As the majority of our clients operate ‘safety sensitive’ worksites, where worker vigilance is a matter of life and death, we now offer comprehensive drug screening.

Offering comprehensive drug screening is a crucial step in maintaining the safety and well-being of employees on safety-sensitive worksites.

By implementing drug testing, you ensure that workers are not impaired while performing tasks that could put themselves, their colleagues, and the public at risk. This proactive measure helps minimise accidents and injuries, promotes a culture of accountability, and ensures that all employees are fit for duty. It also provides peace of mind to both employers and clients, knowing that safety protocols are being followed and that the workforce is functioning at its highest level of performance.

Constructsafe assessments

We are now registered to induct and issue Constructsafe passports

What are they?

ConstructSafe proves the health and safety competency of our workforce. It provides assurance that every worker onsite understands the same things to carry out their jobs safely.

A ConstructSafe passport is a crucial certification that ensures workers are knowledgeable about essential health and safety practices before stepping onto a construction site. 

Requiring candidates to pass an induction test confirms their understanding of potential hazards, proper protocols, and emergency procedures. This helps minimise accidents and injuries on site by ensuring that everyone knows the risks and how to handle them appropriately. Ultimately, the construction passport is a foundational step in promoting a culture of safety and responsibility within the construction industry.

Mask fit tests 

Mask fit testing is essential for workplace safety, particularly when employees are exposed to harmful airborne particles or chemicals. Ensuring that masks fit correctly helps to guarantee their effectiveness in protecting workers from inhaling dangerous substances. A proper fit minimises the risk of exposure to respiratory hazards, preventing health issues such as lung disease or respiratory infections.

Fit testing also ensures that masks provide the necessary seal, reducing the chances of contamination or injury. Overall, mask fit testing is a vital component of workplace safety protocols, safeguarding the well-being of employees and maintaining a safe working environment.
