Why Drug & Alcohol Testing Remains Critical in NSW
Benefits of Oral Fluid Testing include:
- Detects recent use, closely aligned to impairment risk
- Lower privacy burden
- Reduced sample tampering risk
Although these changes directly impact NSW rail operators, the principles apply broadly across safety‑critical industries. Many NSW organisations are now adopting risk‑based testing models that:
- Match testing types to operational risk
- Use oral fluid testing where recent use is the primary concern
- Use urine testing where longer detection windows are required
- Strengthen documentation, training, and compliance
This approach delivers programs that are better aligned to operational needs and workplace risk.
ToxWipe 7 is officially listed by ONRSR as an approved device for NSW rail operators, enabling operators to confidently use ToxWipe 7+ to meet updated obligations.
Reach out to our team for support implementing compliant, risk‑based, and defensible drug and alcohol testing programs aligned with the latest NSW requirements.
Requirements for NSW Rail Operators
A compliant DAMP must include documented testing processes, incident testing, ONRSR reporting, evidence‑standard collections and use of authorised collectors.
To implement oral fluid testing, operators must have:
- Trained authorised persons

- Approved laboratories
