NorthPort conducts first random drug testing for 2025

In view of its goal to provide a drug-free, healthy, and safe work environment for its employees and port users, NorthPort conducted its first random drug testing for the year last 19 February.

One hundred eight employees, including support services staff, equipment operators and direct port workers, were randomly tested.

NorthPort has been holding five to six random drug testing sessions annually since 2023, testing about 100 employees per session. The program aligns with the Department of Labor and Employment’s guidelines for a drug-free workplace and NorthPort’s own Drug-Free Workplace Policy.

NorthPort recognizes societal drug abuse and believes testing helps maintain a safe workplace and supports individuals seeking assistance.
