AusHealth Work, a division of The AusHealth Hospital Research Fund, has been a national workplace safety and wellbeing leader since 1985 and specialises in providing drug and alcohol testing services.
We are currently seeking to expand our technician network to work with AusHealth clients based in the Mackay/Townsville region.
