As the employer, you must ask the employee if in the last 3 years they have tested positive for any controlled substances pre-employment test for any other company or refused to be tested for any controlled substances pre-employment test for any other company. You must also ask if they have tested above .04 on any alcohol pre-employment test for any other company to which the employee applied for, but did not obtain, safety-sensitive transportation work covered by DOT agency drug and alcohol testing rules during the past two years. (See Part 40.25(j)).

Drivers hired within the last 365 days, which were not pre-employment tested, and have not been selected and tested, under a random test, must be pre-employment tested.

Ensure the number of random controlled substances tests conducted annually equals or exceeds 50 percent of the average number of driver positions and the number of random alcohol tests conducted annually equals or exceeds 10 percent of the average number of driver positions, in accordance with 49 CFR Part 382.

Ensure persons designated to determine that drivers undergo reasonable suspicion testing receive 60 minutes training for alcohol and/or 60 minutes of training for controlled substances.

Please ensure each driver application contains every item identified under Part 391.21 (b)(1) - (b)(12).

Ensure that all drivers are fully and properly qualified before operating in interstate commerce. Maintain a complete file as required for each driver, documenting the qualification process. Part 391.51(b)1-8 will give you a better explanation of what is required for a complete file.

Require all drivers to prepare complete and accurate records of duty status for each day, and to submit them within 13 days. Maintain all duty status records on file, with all supporting documents, for at least 6 months.

Driver's activities on his/her record of duty status shall be recorded in accordance with the guidelines outlined in Part 395.8(f)(1)-(f)(12).
