How Terra Recycling Strengthened Control and Reduced Risks Through Daily Sobriety Testing

Terra Recycling is a metal collection, recycling, and waste management company operating since 2009. The company employs around 170 people who work both outdoors and in production facilities. Operations are carried out across two branches, with frequent use of heavy machinery — making safety, responsibility, and process control essential to daily work.
Why the Company Chose Worksober?

The company was looking for a solution that would both improve sobriety control and automate work time tracking. Before implementing Worksober, sobriety checks were performed irregularly, and work time records were kept manually. This increased administrative workload and made it difficult to identify incidents or inconsistencies accurately.

The decision was strongly influenced by the production manager’s personal experience — after seeing Worksober in use at another company, he was impressed by its functionality and ease of use. This practical encounter became the foundation for choosing Worksober as a reliable and modern tool for ensuring sobriety control.

How Worksober Helped?

The company installed stationary devices integrated with access control and equipped with backup connectivity to ensure uninterrupted operation under all conditions. Sobriety tests are performed daily for all employees. The process is directly linked to time tracking — the moment an employee completes a test marks the official start of their workday.

Work time sheets are generated automatically within the system, providing immediate visibility for supervisors and shift managers. This has accelerated administrative processes and reduced the risk of human error.

Results

Since implementing Worksober, Terra Recycling has seen significant improvements:

  • Improved workplace discipline: daily sobriety testing encourages accountability.
  • Reduced administrative workload: automated time tracking and testing replaced manual procedures.
  • Stronger prevention: intoxicated employees are effectively prevented from entering the workplace.
  • Increased transparency: managers have clear, real-time data on employee attendance and condition.
  • Lower risk of incidents: consistent sobriety checks help prevent accidents and protect both workers and the company.
Summary

Terra Recycling’s experience demonstrates that Worksober not only strengthens control but also saves time, reduces administrative strain, and fosters a safer, more responsible work culture.

“I use this system personally and really like it — it’s simple, clear, and provides real-time visibility of the situation. Our shift managers rely on it for timesheets, and most importantly, it helps ensure that no intoxicated employees are allowed to work. It protects both people and the company from accidents.”
