In order to assist in identifying alcohol and drug use on the job and help employers comply with DOT’s testing requirements, supervisors must understand the regulations and know the steps they must take to ensure that commercial drivers under their supervision do not violate the rules. Because identifying substance use and making reasonable-suspicion determinations is not always easy, supervisors need sufficient knowledge to act effectively and within the limits of the law. Furthermore, the regulations specifically require supervisor training
This training program provides information for supervisors of commercial drivers about the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) rules regarding drug and alcohol testing. DOT rules require employers to test for substance abuse among their drivers and make sure they do not work under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
When the training is completed, supervisors will be able to:
- Understand the requirements of the DOT alcohol and drug testing rules.
- Recognize the performance effects of drug and alcohol use.
- Identify signs and symptoms of substance use on the job.
- Make proper reasonable-suspicion determinations.
