Case Study
How Vlantana Strengthened Workplace Safety in Logistics Operations with Automated Sobriety Testing
Why the Company Chose Worksober?
Before implementing Worksober, driver sobriety checks were performed using handheld breathalyzers. Drivers had to complete a test before each trip, but the process was slow, inefficient, and heavily reliant on manual data entry. Results were recorded in logbooks, and the accuracy of control depended on human factors.
Vlantana chose Worksober for its automation, simplicity, and transparent data access. A particularly valued feature is the ability to export data to .xls format, enabling easy analysis and systematic reporting.
How Worksober Helped?
Since 2019, Vlantana has installed four stationary Worksober devices at key checkpoints — the document issuance desk, maintenance department, security gate, and warehouse areas. The system operates continuously, either 24/7 or during working hours, depending on location.
Every employee, whether a driver or warehouse worker, completes a sobriety test before starting work or entering the premises. All results are automatically recorded, and SMS alerts are sent instantly to responsible supervisors in case of violations.
The practical benefits became evident in measurable results: the number of alcohol-related incidents dropped from 2% to 0.8% between the 2022–2023 and 2024–2025 periods — a reduction of more than half, proving that consistent control serves as a highly effective preventive measure.
Results
Worksober helped Vlantana achieve key safety and efficiency goals:
- Streamlined and automated testing – sobriety checks now run quickly and consistently, without manual intervention.
- The number of violations decreased by 60%, dropping from 2% to just 0.8% between the 2022–2023 and 2024–2025 periods.
- Easier data management and analysis – information is centralized, transparent, and exportable for audits.
- Higher trust and reliability – control quality improved without adding human resources, enhancing employee confidence in the system.
Summary
Vlantana demonstrated that even in a large, multi-national logistics organization, sobriety testing can be fully automated — ensuring continuous, reliable control without burdening staff. Worksober has become a cornerstone of the company’s safety culture, combining prevention, precision, and efficiency.
“Workplace safety and health are not just legal obligations — they’re essential to creating a productive and secure environment. The Worksober system effectively prevents alcohol-related incidents, helps avoid accidents, reduces stress, and ultimately improves performance.”
