Questions about DAC report

They can call the company and ask why you were terminated.

Have you 'cleaned up' since then?

 

there is NO clearing house on drug test results,

YET !!

 

Here in CT, they can't say why someone was terminated. All they can say is that they would or would not hire the person back. My wife is an HR Director and deals with that stuff all the time.

 

if it is a DAC company that info is available to anyone who subscribes to DAC. it does not go away, you need to do the SAP program and if you did not afer you tested positive then you will never be able to find a job in the trucking industry again. and Puppage that works for non DOT jobs but in the DOT world that is not the case. It always has to be reported, ALWAYS!!!!!!!

 

Nothing is confidential in this industry.

 

Most former employers will state cause for termination if you sign a release that holds them harmless. Some companies require you sign such documents in order to have a chance at being hired. Otherwise, most simply state your position, the term in which you worked for them, and how much you were paid.

To give further information opens them up to libel and defamation lawsuits.

 

any trucking company has to check back at least 3 years some more to get all drug/alcohol and accident from previous DOT jobs you worked, This is required by the DOT in order for them to hire you to do a DOT job or required to follow the guidelines of FMCSG or the in other words the little green book all drivers carry in the truck with them.
