September Webinar: FMCSA's Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse and upcoming implementation of the Clearinghouse Il Rule
2024-09-19 13:00 - 14:00 (America/New_York)
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse was implemented in January 2020 and currently has more than 5.4 million registered users, with 287,984 violations reported.
Implementation of the FMCSA’s new Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse 2 Final Rule is a priority under the Department of Transportation’s National Roadway Safety Strategy (NRSS). Beginning November 18, 2024, State Driver License Agencies (SDLAs) will be required to remove the commercial driving privileges of more than 175,000 commercial drivers with a “prohibited” status in the Clearinghouse until the driver completes the DOT return-to-duty (RTD) process.
In this webinar, Bryan Price, Chief of Drug and Alcohol Programs for FMCSA, will provide insights on what this update will mean and how to prepare for it.

November Webinar: Employer Survey Reveals Latest Drug Testing Trends and What the Future Holds - 11.21
2024-11-21 13:00 - 14:00
Current Consulting Group’s eighth Annual Employer Drug Testing Survey reveals what employers really think about drug testing and how drug testing might change in the next few years. How are employers responding to the legalization of marijuana? What do they think of rapid-result and oral fluid testing? Do employers believe drug testing works? What are their biggest challenges when it comes to screening applicants and employees for drugs? These are just some of the pressing questions addressed in this year’s employer survey.
Join Bill Current, Brian Feeley and Jackie Pirone of the Current Consulting Group (CCG) for a deep dive into the results of CCG’s annual employer drug testing survey. They will share survey results and discuss what they mean for drug testing providers and employers. They will also juxtapose the survey’s results with the results from CCG’s 26th Annual Drug Testing Industry Survey, co-sponsored by NDASA, to show how providers’ views compare to those of drug testing buyers.

When you are working with employers regulated by multiple agencies within the U.S. Department of Transportation it is critical to understand and remember how the regulatory requirements among agencies differ.
