What drug detection screening covers

Drug detection dogs provide a fast, non-intrusive way to screen people, vehicles, deliveries and premises for controlled substances. A single trained dog can clear a room, a loading bay or a queue of staff in a fraction of the time — and with far greater accuracy — than any manual search.

For employers, proactive drug screening protects your workforce, supports your drug-and-alcohol policy and demonstrates a genuine duty of care. For event organisers, a visible detection capability at entry points is a proven deterrent that keeps substances off site.

How Westgate delivers it

We provide both announced and unannounced screening programmes, from one-off sweeps to regular scheduled visits. Our handlers work discreetly and professionally, and every screening is documented so you have a clear, defensible record supporting any subsequent action.

Detection teams integrate with your existing security, HR and health-and-safety processes. We will advise on the right approach for your workplace or event following a free consultation with a local expert.
