FAST ACCURATE RESULTS

Efficient Drug Screening for Diverse Sectors

Frequently asked questions
What substances are detected by fingerprint drug testing?
It screens for recent use of opiates, cocaine, methamphetamines, and cannabis.
What is the typical detection window for substances?
FDT detects substances within approximately 16–24 hours after use. Cocaine may remain detectable for up to 48 hours. This aligns with fitness-for-duty screening needs.
How accurate is the test?
FDT provides a reliable on-site screen using fluorescent immunoassay. Results are classed as ‘negative’ or ‘nonnegative’. The method has accuracy comparable to other point-of-care drug tests.
What does a ‘non-negative’ result mean?
A non-negative result indicates possible recent use of a drug. It is not a confirmed result. In the rail industry, a follow-up RISQS-approved urine test is conducted to confirm or rule out the presence of active drugs as mandated by Network Rail.
Is fingerprint drug testing compliant with data protection laws?
Yes. FDT is fully compliant with UK GDPR. No biometric or identifiable fingerprint images are captured. Samples are anonymised with donor IDs and barcodes.
Can fingerprint testing be used in remote or mobile rail worksites?
Yes. The portable reader and cartridge system requires no plumbing, private rooms, or refrigeration, making it ideal for on-track, depot, or compound testing*.
What if the donor is taking prescription or over-the-counter medication?
All medications must be declared during the consent process. If a non-negative result occurs, a Medical Review Officer (MRO) may assess whether the substance could impair one’s ability to perform safely.
How are fingerprint drug test results recorded and reported?
Screening results are displayed within 10 minutes on the portable reader. For audit purposes, the device stores result logs, and results can be recorded manually or printed for documentation. Only non-negative results trigger escalation procedures.
How do we implement fingerprint drug testing in our operation?
Book an onsite demo with Auctus Management Group. We will guide your team through setup, policy integration, and on-site rollout to ensure compliance and ease of adoption.
*While Network Rail currently mandates RISQS-approved urine testing for Compliance-specific targets, fingerprint drug testing (FDT) is well suited for pre-employment screening, site inductions, random testing, and proactive use on rail projects to support a safety-first culture.
