When it comes to ensuring workplace safety, choosing the right saliva drug test kit isn’t just a matter of compliance—it’s a matter of responsibility. At Lane WorkSafe, we’ve been helping Australian businesses maintain drug-safe environments since 2005. We understand the unique challenges faced by safety professionals, HR managers, and business owners across high-risk industries such as construction, mining, transport, and manufacturing.

Whether you’re introducing a new workplace drug screening program or upgrading your current testing method, selecting a reliable saliva drug test kit is essential to protecting your staff, your business, and your reputation. In this guide, we’ll walk you through what to look for in a saliva drug test kit, and why our fully compliant solutions are trusted by professionals across Australia.

Why Saliva Testing?

Saliva drug testing has become the go-to choice for many businesses thanks to its speed, non-invasive nature, and ability to detect recent use. Unlike urine tests, which often require private facilities and longer turnaround times, saliva drug test kits deliver accurate results quickly and discreetly—often within minutes.

At Lane WorkSafe, our saliva-based kits provide an efficient and reliable alternative to traditional testing, helping you stay compliant while reducing workplace risk and downtime.

Australian Standard Compliance: Non-Negotiable

The first feature to consider when choosing a saliva drug test kit is compliance with AS4760:2019, the Australian Standard for oral fluid testing. All saliva drug tests from Lane WorkSafe—ToxWipe™ 7 Saliva Drug Test Kit and the Accurate™ Oral Fluid Drug Screen 9-panel—are fully compliant with this standard.

This compliance ensures your test results are recognised within relevant workplace policies and are consistent with the Building Code 2013 Legislation. Using non-compliant kits can compromise your legal standing and place your workplace safety program at risk.

Detection Range: What Substances Are You Testing For?

One size does not fit all when it comes to drug screening. The right saliva drug test kit should align with your organisation’s specific risk profile and the substances you need to screen for.

Our Recommended Kits:

  • ToxWipe™ 7 Saliva Drug Test Kit
    Detects: THC, Methamphetamines, Amphetamines, Cocaine, Benzodiazepines, and Opiates.
    A solid choice for workplaces with standard testing requirements, particularly in construction and manufacturing.
  •  Accurate™ Oral Fluid Drug Screen 9-panel
    Detects: THC, Methamphetamines, Amphetamines, Cocaine, Benzodiazepines, Oxycodone, K2/Synthetic Marijuana, and Alcohol.
    Ideal for organisations that require broader screening coverage or operate in safety-critical industries.

Selecting the right panel ensures you’re detecting the substances most relevant to your workforce and risk environment.

Sensitivity: Detecting Even the Smallest Trace

A high-quality saliva drug test kit should be sensitive enough to detect even minimal traces of drugs. This is particularly important when identifying recent use, which could impact employee performance or pose safety risks on-site.

Both Lane WorkSafe saliva kits are designed to offer high sensitivity across all included substances, giving you the confidence that your results are accurate and reliable.

Ease of Use: Simplicity Matters

When testing is carried out on-site or by your own staff, user-friendliness becomes a top priority. The easier it is to administer a test, the smoother your screening process becomes—saving time and minimising room for error.

  • The ToxWipe™ 7 Saliva Drug Test Kit is compact and straightforward to use. It requires only 0.2ml of saliva, making it quick and comfortable for the person being tested.
  • The Accurate™ 9-panel saliva drug test kit includes a built-in indicator in the swab that changes colour when enough saliva has been collected. Its mint-flavoured sponge improves the overall experience, especially during longer testing sessions.

With minimal training required, both kits are suitable for in-house use and ideal for mobile testing environments.

Fast Turnaround, Real-Time Results

In many industries, time is of the essence. Waiting hours—or days—for lab results can slow down operations and leave safety concerns unaddressed. With a saliva drug test kit, results are available within minutes, enabling immediate decision-making.

This speed makes saliva testing especially effective for random screenings, post-incident assessments, and pre-employment checks.

Packaging and Privacy

Maintaining confidentiality during the testing process is critical—not only for employee morale but also to uphold your legal and ethical obligations.

Our saliva drug test kits come in discreet, tamper-proof packaging to ensure both accuracy and privacy. This added layer of security helps protect sensitive data and promotes a culture of trust and transparency in your workplace.

Training, Support and Resources

The right product is only half the equation. At Lane WorkSafe, we go beyond just supplying testing kits—we provide a full support ecosystem to help you use them with confidence.
