Given the sheer volume of records that motor carriers are expected to maintain to ensure their drivers are fully qualified, it’s no wonder that mistakes can happen. When they do, it can lead to claims by a lawyer or an auditor that an unqualified driver was behind the wheel of a regulated vehicle, which can have serious consequences for the driver and company.
Â
Your driver qualification (DQ) files and the Safety Management Controls you have in place to ensure your drivers are fully qualified at all times will be closely scrutinized during a DOT audit. Violations can result in fines, a lowered safety rating, and higher scores in the Driver Fitness BASIC. This webcast will help you prepare for, and even avoid, a DOT audit of your driver qualification records and practices.

Although the Bloodborne Pathogen Standard has been around almost three decades, it continues to confuse employers. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 is cited about 500 times each year, making it a frequently violated regulation in Part 1910. Perhaps the confusion and noncompliance may be found in the very text of the standard — legal terminology that has been with the standard from the very beginning.
The Bloodborne Pathogens Standard defines 28 terms in its definitions section, so the use of these words and phrases may make this particular regulation a challenge for employers in general industry. This webcast explores definitions of the key terms in the standard, as well as OSHA’s intent. The better you understand the terminology, the easier, faster, and less costly your compliance efforts may be. So don’t miss out. Register today!
