Overview

OVERVIEW OF OUR PROGRAM
FOR BUSINESSES

The intent of our program is to provide employers with a proactive tool to minimize the potential of dangerous contraband on company property and substance abuse in the workplace.  K.I.D.S. realizes that no single program is the panacea to this complex  real issue which jeopardizes the safety, welfare and productivity of the entire staff. K.I.D.S. has a highly qualified management staff  with over fifty (50) years of combined experience. The owners and management staff of our organization were carefully selected with the purpose of providing our clientele with the best possible service nationwide.

K.I.D.S. will provide the initial presentations to union representatives and management at no charge to the company. In some instances, this also applies to the initial demonstration for employees. These thorough and positive presentations are essential to communicate and establish the intent and procedures of this program. The inspections are performed on an unannounced basis to protect the integrity of the program. However, K.I.D.S. realizes that some unavoidable circumstances may arise and conflict with the unexpected arrival of a canine team. Therefore, a company representative can select days that are appropriate to visit while considering times and shifts. Inspections are under the auspices of each site administrator. K.I.D.S. excludes the use of their canines to "sniff" individuals under any circumstance(s). K.I.D.S. also refrains discriminating against a single locker, vehicle, etc...

With our highly trained personnel and canines, your company will find our standard of quality of  to be unprecedented nationwide. K.I.D.S. consultants have an extensive background enabling us to provide education on topics such as drug awareness, substance abuse, gangs and prevention. This complements the overall objective for everyone, while allowing companies to take a proactive role towards assuring a safe and productive working environment .
 

Once the handler has confirmed the canine's indication, the owner will be summoned to the area of indication. First our handler will confirm the person present is the owner. Then our handler will proceed with a brief but decisive speech that reiterates what the canine can detect and inquire whether the owner can think of any reason why the canine has indicated. After their response, the handler will ask permission to inspect the item. After the owner gives permission and physically opens the item, the handler will conduct an inspection. If the owner refuses, the handler will refer the incident to the company official for follow through under their policies and procedures. If there is any contraband or item prohibited under company policy, the handler will collect and turn it over to the company official with the appropriate documentation. All confirmed canine indications are documented on our Incident Outline Maintenance Reports (IOMR) with a copy provided and retained by the company official at the conclusion of each visit.

All of our canine teams are certified reliable as a team. If for some reason we change a canine and handler team, we will re-certify the new team prior to servicing your company. This major change is critical to the company in the event there is a question of reliability involving the new team. Furthermore, this ensures the company will obtain a trained and certified service team with each and every visit. K.I.D.S. has a tracking method for such transactions. Upon request, all of our clients will be provided copies of qualifying  certifications of each team servicing their company. To authenticate the certified team, the company simply matches the canine and handler on the invoice with the company's copy of reliable certifications.
