Alcohol Screening for Mines & Construction Sites

On a mine or a construction site, the place to test is the gate or the lamp room — everyone passes it, and it comes before heavy machinery, height work or blasting. A wall-mounted station there screens every worker as part of walking in.

Sites usually pair the station with a handheld analyzer for supervisors, to confirm a flagged result and to test at remote work faces where there is no gate.

When to test

  • At the gate or lamp room before every shift
  • Before operating heavy machinery or vehicles
  • Before work at height or blasting
  • Random checks at remote work areas

Questions from mining & construction teams

Where should a mine install the breath analyzer?

At the point every worker passes before going underground or on site — the gate or the lamp room — with mains power nearby.

What threshold do sites use?

That is the site's own policy; many safety-critical sites use zero. India's legal limit for driving is 30 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood (0.03% BAC), under Section 185 of the Motor Vehicles Act.

Can supervisors test away from the gate?

Yes, with a handheld fuel cell analyzer, which also confirms any result flagged at the gate.
