Compliance Tip Of The Week: Staying Updated with Driver Records

Keeping track of your drivers' records is crucial for maintaining compliance with safety standards. The Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse provides employers with timely notifications regarding changes to a driver’s record.

How Notifications Work

Employers are automatically notified via email when there is new information in a driver's Clearinghouse record within 12 months of a pre-employment or annual query. This includes updates on return-to-duty status, removed violations, or new violations. The query history is updated in tandem, ensuring you have the latest information.

Why It Matters

The expanded notification system enhances an employer's ability to respond quickly and manage compliance effectively. Previously, notifications were limited to 30 days post pre-employment queries, but now cover a broader timeframe to keep you better informed.

Stay proactive in monitoring your drivers and maintaining compliance with ease by leveraging these Clearinghouse tools. Your commitment to safety and compliance helps build a stronger, more reliable fleet.
