Can CogState WorkPlace replace drug and alcohol testing?
CogState Workplace can be used in isolation or as a less invasive first step to identify impairment which is followed up by drug testing where deemed appropriate. There is ongoing resistance to the invasive methods required for accurate drug testing of individuals. Unions and organizations such as WorkCover NSW are advocating for less invasive measures to identify workplace impairment. CogState WorkPlace is a less invasive approach in the assessment of fitness for duty for work and can be an integral step in any OH&S system.
