Frequently asked questions.
Who is responsible for H&S when using Trade Assist workers?

Are all Trade Assist workers drug tested?
Yes — pre-placement drug and alcohol testing is mandatory for every candidate. We also support random testing programmes at host sites on request.
Do your workers hold current Site Safe?
Yes — Site Safe Foundation Passport is a minimum requirement for all workers. ConstructSafe Tier 1 is standard for construction and civil placements.
