Rail Industry Worker Program

The Rail Industry Worker (RIW) Program has partnered with Alcolizer Technology to deliver a fully integrated solution for automated breath alcohol testing and real-time result management within the RIW System. Test results are uploaded to the System approximately 20 seconds after a breath test is completed.

This partnership supports compliance with the Rail Safety National Law, providing rail and construction organisations with full visibility of workers as they move between projects and employers. It ensures that only qualified and fit-for-duty workers are granted access to rail sites, enhancing safety across Australia’s rail networks.

Using the Breathalyser on Site

When attending a site equipped with a standalone breathalyser unit:

  1. Scan your RIW card on the breathalyser device.
  2. Follow the prompt to blow into the device.
  3. The result will be uploaded to the System in approximately 20 seconds.


Device Compatibility

The RIW Program integrates with both wall-mounted and handheld Alcoizer Technology devices, including Wall Mount 4, Centurion Zero Tolerance, LE5 and HH4. For setup instructions, please refer to the RIW website.

If you have any further queries regarding breathalyser integration, refer to the Breathalyser FAQ’s on the RIW website or contact the RIW Service Desk on [email protected]
