Stimulant Surge Threatens Workplaces | Australia News

Description

Amphetamines like meth are now responsible for six out of ten workplace drug tests in Australia, signaling a dangerous spike in drug use across high-risk industries. While opioids decline, cocaine rises and cannabis remains prevalent — with WA leading in stimulants, SA in cocaine, and QLD in cannabis. Tragic accidents like the Hunter Valley bus crash highlight the deadly cost of ignoring workplace drug safety. With 3% of all tests positive, employers must act: one in every 33 workers could be impaired — and that’s not a risk worth taking.
