ClearStar – a leading provider of Human Capital Integrity℠ technology-based services – is sponsoring a free webinar about “Drug & Alcohol Testing in the Transportation Industry” that will feature Bill Current and Rick Tennant of the Current Consulting Group, LLC (CCG), which provides expert consulting in all areas of substance abuse testing. The free webinar will take place from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM EDT on Wednesday, March 23, 2022.
Employers covered by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) must follow strict regulations when conducting drug and alcohol testing of specific safety-sensitive workers. Compliance is mandatory and non-compliance can result in stiff fines or worse. Employers not covered by DOT regulations with safety-sensitive workers in the transportation industry have more flexibility with how and when they test for drugs and alcohol.
Current and Tennant have more than 50 years of combined experience in helping companies comply with the DOT regulations and the specifics of part 40, as well as establishing non-DOT programs that comply with applicable state drug testing laws. They will answer questions during and after the webinar to ensure attendees understand their obligations. The learning objectives of the one hour webinar will include the following:
- Who is covered by DOT regulations and how to tell if they apply to an employer.
- What the DOT regulations require of covered employers and employees.
- The drug and alcohol testing options available to employers if they are not covered by the regulations.
- How non-DOT and DOT programs differ.
- Why drug and alcohol testing are important toward achieving a safe transportation industry.
