Random Drug and Alcohol Testing

As part of our random alcohol and drug testing procedure, our occupational health service provider
th
attended a site that we were working at on 27 April and on the same day attended the Xmo Strata Head
Office to conduct random drugs and alcohol testing.

Two site team members were selected at random, by the service provider and two office team members
were selected in the same way.

All four employees were tested for the presence of following drugs:

Alcohol
Cannabis
Methadone
Benzodiazepines
Opiates
Cocaine
Buprenorphine
Amphetamines

I am pleased to confirm that all four employees tested negative for all substances and Fit to Work notes
were issued for all.

Please remember that if you are prescribed drugs by your GP or doctor that may affect your ability to
drive or operate machinery, please advise your line manager with immediate effect; we care about your
safety and will try to work with you if we know of any issues.

We are all a product of learning. Every skill we have; everything we know; everything we believe and everything we do has
been learned throughout the course of our lives. Some of us learn best by studying graphs and charts, some through visual
presentations, and some by reading detailed text books. It is important that we receive information in a format that works for
us as individuals! That’s why at Xmo Strata we use a variety of communication platforms such as bulletins, newsletters,
videos etc. However, if you feel there is a better way for us to share health and safety information, please let us know.
Ultimately, your safety is in your hands – but we will do all we can to keep you well informed!
