Published November 7th, 2017 by Drugdetectadmin

More and more companies are using Drug Detecting Dogs to deter criminal activity while reducing businesses liability. 


Since 2001 the amount of working dogs in the united states has quintupled!! We all know government agencies, such as customs and border patrol, homeland security, and the FBI use K-9s every day. Many people do not realize intelligent business owners are utilizing drug detecting dogs to keep their businesses safe. Did you know that if someone is injured or attacked on the job, its the business owner who is liable, even if the culprit is high on drugs? Insurance rates are continuing to rise, and business owners are becoming ever more clever. From cargo companies to warehouses to the treatment industry, owners and executives are hiring private drug detecting dog firms to ensure the safety and security of their clients and employees. 

"The same job that takes the average human over an hour can be done by a K-9 in minutes."

Audit Your Staffs:

Whether you are in healthcare, sober living, logistics, shipping, or education its imperative  to impose checks and balances that ensure your staff is up to par. Many times the highest liabilities of a business are protected by employees making near minimum wage that lack the training. Our clients love the fact that we provide consultative feedback on how they can improve there operations and reduce their liability by auditing their staff. Its natural for humans to become creatures of habit and K9s can help highlight areas your staff may frequently overlook. 

HealthCare Industry:

The Treatment Industry, especially in South Florida, home to the highest volume of Treatment Centers in the United States are beginning to alleviate responsibility from employees and started hiring drug detection firms. Treatment centers task their technicians to complete the tedious process of searching the patients ensuring a drug free environment. This is a waste of time for Management and Technicians. Too often this process takes hours, interrupts operations and proves to be highly inefficient. A very scary thought to treatment centers knowing what lurks within their walls. The leading treatment centers truly combating the addiction crisis are turning to detection agencies to conduct routine and emergency searches of their facility. The same job that takes the average human over an hour can be done by a K-9 in minutes. Peace of mind for management and a safe environment for patients all thanks to a working K-9.

Deterrence:

A major factor preventing illegal activities such as smuggling, selling and drug trafficking are random and scheduled drug sweeps. Oft times, business owners would have their staff conduct searches, and too often these effort prove to be a waste of time and money. A human’s ability to find drugs versus a drug dog with a trained handler is not comparable. the nose of a dog’s can be up to 100,000 times more effective than a human, therefore it comes as no surprise why decision makers hire drug detection companies to alleviate their burden, thus keeping client and employees safe. Studies have shown the simple deterrence factor plays a major role. Companies that utilize regular and random sweeps deter employees from using their place of business to handle and/or distribute illicit substances. After interviewing dozens of staff members, we have learned the K-9 will ensure the safety and security of business operations.
