1. Challenge
With a fleet of over 500 vehicles, the safety of their employees, customers and the public are paramount to Axis.
Living up to their core value of safety, Axis looked for a drug and alcohol screening partner to educate their employees and ensure drug and alcohol misuse is kept to an absolute minimum.

3. Benefit
Axis told us … “D.tec have allowed us to continue to achieve best practice and a safe working environment for all.”
Axis have found the DrugWipe Dual and Drager Alcometer, easy to use, flexible and manageable.

2. Solution
Axis required a non-invasive, easy procedure to ensure the safety of their employees, customers and the public. Axis told us… “We looked at various suppliers to assist us, however, after our initial meeting with D.tec, it was apparent that they are more than just a supplier. They are a partner. D.tec are able to provide us with education and training to support our development and ensure a smooth transition from planning to implementation.”
With this in mind, Axis have adopted on-site screening using the DrugWipe Dual and Drager Alcometer, alongside all training and resources to keep them compliant.

4. Result
By incorporating the DrugWipe Dual and Drager Alcometer, it has allowed Axis to eliminate potential drug or alcohol use as a factor for any at fault motor claims.
In addition, Axis have found it has helped with employee engagement and awareness.
