IIP Recognition for Trimega Laboratories
By Trimega Laboratories, PRNETuesday, November 9, 2010
LONDON, November 10, 2010 - UK based Trimega Laboratories is pleased to announce that it has been
recognised as having met the standards set by the prestigious Investors in
People (IIP) Standard.
Its accreditation follows an examination by the Employer Representative
Quality Board of IIP and reflects the commitment and hard work undertaken by
Trimega Laboratories as an organisation. A significant aspect of the
achievement is that, as a substance abuse testing company serving a global
market, its 40 strong workforce is spread across offices and laboratories
many different locations - including Germany and South Africa.
Douglas MacSween, General Manager of Trimega Laboratories, commented:
"This credential shows that we, as a company, are committed to the
development of our staff in all aspects and are raising the bar in our
sector. A key ingredient of our exceptional team is a thorough understanding
of our market needs that enables us to focus on the delivery of quality
service whilst meeting tight court deadlines. Because we are always mindful
that a drug and alcohol test is not just a scientific result but a process
that puts children into safer environments, we are all prepared to go the
extra mile."
Trimega Laboratories is one of a very small number of specialist
companies in the UK that test hair samples for evidence of alcohol or drug
abuse. The vast majority of circumstances in which people are required to
undergo a hair strand test in the UK are when a child care application is
made to a Family Court by one of the UK's Local Authorities.
