LIVE instructor led webinars are scheduled routinely
Per FMCSA §382.603 Training for Supervisors,
each employer shall ensure that all persons designated to supervise
drivers must receive at least 60 minutes of training on alcohol misuse
and receive at least an additional 60 minutes of training on controlled
substances use. The training will be used by the supervisors to
determine whether reasonable suspicion exists to require a driver to
undergo testing under §382.307. The training shall include the physical,
behavioral, speech, and performance indicators of probable alcohol
misuse and use of controlled substances. Recurrent training for
supervisory personnel is not required.
This Supervisor Drug & Alcohol Training includes the reasonable
suspicion determination process as well as discussion of the negative
health effects associated with illegal drugs, illegal use of
prescription drugs, and excessive use of alcohol. Additionally, we will
cover:
> Who gets tested?
> What should they be test for?
> What is the allowable Blood Alcohol Content (BAC)?
> How to recognize a driver who is impaired and what to do?
> What are the rules for conducting a reasonable suspicion test?
> How should you handle a driver who self-reports?
> What should you do when one driver reports another?
Can you afford to NOT know the answer to these questions? Knowledge
gained from this session will assist you in developing and managing your
company’s drug and alcohol testing program, which is required for all
companies with CMVs greater than 26,000 lbs GVWR (require a CDL to
operate). In addition to the required elements of the mandated
Supervisor Drug & Alcohol Training, we will address many
lessons-learned from safety managers, enforcement staff, and Substance
Abuse Professionals (SAP).
Included in this presentation is a significant amount of material that
goes beyond the requirements within §382.603 – things you need to know
to help you and others in your company make wise choices with regard to
issues surrounding drug and alcohol use.
NOTE: Upon completion, you will receive a certificate for your records.
