When you contact Integrity Sampling South Australia to conduct drug and alcohol testing in your workplace, you can be sure that our technicians are the real deal. They’re trained, accredited, and authorised to carry out testing—not imposters in high-vis vests!
This reassurance comes after SafeWork SA issued a warning about a man impersonating a SafeWork SA Inspector. The individual subjected two workers in Adelaide to a roadside-style drug and alcohol testing, despite having no authority to do so. While the workers weren’t harmed, the incident raised serious concerns about trust, safety, and compliance.
Fake South Australian inspector, fake drug and alcohol testing
According to SafeWork SA, the man approached two workers who were carrying out earthworks at Victor Harbor and claimed he was a SafeWork SA Inspector. He then carried out so-called drug and alcohol testing, even though he had no legal standing and no connection to any workplace safety authority.
The event has understandably caused unease among South Australian employers and employees. If someone without credentials can walk onto a site and conduct fake tests, it highlights the importance of verifying who you are dealing with. It also underlines why the importance of using a professional, accredited provider, like Integrity Sampling South Australia, for drug and alcohol testing.
