Does anyone use something to check their employees are ok to drive in the mornings?
Going to get my guy driving soon but would hate to experience something v bad in the way of alcohol related, the morning after..

IMO if you're thinking of breathelising him, you're not sure of him.
Go with your gut.
Problem with that too is it'll only register (obviously) alcohol. What if he smokes some green?
Go with your gut. If in doubt-kick him out.

Robertphil is your man for this. He probably breathalyses his staff 6 or 7 times a day, aswell as daily drug tests. He'll be along shortly to advise.

If they're not smoking at work, not turning up stoned and their work performances are fine, what's the problem?

I thought it was compulsary to have a couple of cans of special brew before work :)

they do smoke normal roll ups at break time. i guess the time to worry is when they start saying "i can fly "

It's nothing to do with Hitler Daz. The guy is 99% ok but from time to time has a big session. Just trying to find a way to protect him, me and anyone else from an avoidable accident.

you might be able to buy a type of litmus paper that you can leave on the dash of your van-if it turns amber theres alcohol in the air , green if its dope !

If brussel sprouts start growing out of his head he's smoking grass and if he's laying on the floor immobile, it's hash.

Tom, I have an alcohol and drugs at work policy and also a h&s update we use which we get staff to sign off on. If we smell anything or suspect anything this backs us up and we can quickly suspend or discipline them. If you want a copy let me know.

The worst that's likely to happen is him being startled when a seed pops.

Tom, you can get self-test breathalyser kits . This is what our drivers carried when driving across the water. France implemented drivers to carry them last year. Ed

No need to add anything into his contract; he should be keen to keep his licence and you're helping him.

How times have changed. We used to have a couple of bubbly pipes stashed in the boiler room where I used to work. It was way way back though. It made nightwork go a lot faster.

I know people advised me against it, but I went with Peninsula for reasons like these. Who knows what your rights are as an employer? They do. It's in my contracts for staff too. I know what my rights are, they know what theirs are. It's very straightforward.
