Work History II

But only "ONE" Employment Verification form is sent out!
BANK ON IT!
The rest is a paper shuffle,the 10 year thing has been a joke from day one.

 

you can use pay stubs from workmans comp, and attending dr's
statements to verify the time.

 

Refer back to post 10.. They may only go back 3yrs, but they do require work history for 10 yrs.. I know, my latest job verified my last 3 yrs, but need names and phone numbers for jobs over the last 10 yrs..

 

Yes, this is true for experienced drivers. A new driver can get by w/ a 5 year work history with certain companies. However, most companies are using 10 as standard hiring procedure as of late.

 

The reason they are using a 10 year history is that it is required by the FMCSA rules.

 

Maybe...In effect in 2010... but some companies are still utilizing a 5 year.

 

Been in effect since 1999 and before.

Actual effective date is 4/4/97

 

Obviously for Experienced drivers not for new hires. We utilize a 5 year MVR and just had a DOT audit with no problems.

 

I will provide the link if you wish.

It is for ALL drivers hired.
