How Cersanit Began Automating Sobriety Control in Production Facilities

Cersanit S.A. is one of Europe’s leading manufacturing companies specializing in the production and supply of ceramic tiles and complete bathroom equipment. The organization operates 9 branches across Europe, employs around 4,500 people, and offers a wide product range including sanitary ceramics, tiles, shower enclosures, bathroom furniture, installation frames, and other equipment. The company’s success is built on high quality standards, modern technologies, and a strong commitment to employee safety and process control.
Why the Company Chose Worksober?

Before implementing Worksober, employee sobriety checks were rare, conducted about once every two weeks using a portable breathalyzer. This practice did not ensure sufficient control or provide managers with real-time information about employee sobriety. Such a system created safety risks and reduced transparency.

When searching for a solution, Cersanit prioritized automation, ease of use, contactless data capture, and access to detailed reports. The solution offered by Worksober met all these criteria, making it the modern, reliable, and centralized choice.

How Worksober Helped?

Cersanit implemented a stationary Worksober device with work time tracking and access control integration. Randomized testing is carried out during each shift to ensure unpredictable yet consistent control. On average, about 2,500 tests are performed monthly at each site, with real-time access to results.

The system also automates time tracking and access control, reducing administrative workload and ensuring that every employee passes through the checkpoint. Managers receive automatic notifications about results, allowing quick responses to incidents or risks.

Results

After implementing Worksober:

  • Workplace safety improved significantly, especially in production zones where eliminating any risk is crucial.
  • Employee awareness increased, as they clearly understand that showing up to work intoxicated can have serious consequences.
  • Processes became transparent and impartial, ensuring equal testing for all employees regardless of position or working hours.
  • The solution is being deployed across all branches, showing the company’s confidence in the system and commitment to unified safety standards.
Summary

Cersanit’s experience with Worksober demonstrates that a systematic approach to sobriety control can enhance both safety and accountability. The automated, fast, and user-friendly system has reduced risks and allowed standardization across all production sites.

“Worksober improved workplace safety for our employees, increased their awareness of the consequences of a positive test result, and helped identify and address those individuals who failed to understand how their condition affected their performance.”
