HLTPAT010 – Collect Specimens for Drugs of Abuse Testing
HLTPAT010 – Collect Specimens for Drugs of Abuse Testing is the current nationally recognised unit of competency that supersedes HLTPAT005.
The updated unit reflects current practices in workplace drug and alcohol testing, with a stronger focus on accurate specimen collection, donor identification, documentation and maintaining a reliable chain of custody throughout the testing process.
Training is designed to support collection procedures in line with relevant Australian and New Zealand Standards, including AS/NZS 4308:2023 for urine drug testing and AS/NZS 4760:2019 for oral fluid testing. HLTPAT010 provides collectors with contemporary skills and knowledge for conducting professional, consistent and defensible drug and alcohol testing in Australian workplaces.
