The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) recently released guidance on the National Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse’s Return-to-Duty process for CMV’s. The effective date of the final rule was Nov. 8, 2021; however, the compliance date for the final rule is Nov. 18, 2024.
FMCSA’s directive is crucial for CMV drivers and employers, as it outlines the necessary steps to ensure that drivers meet federal requirements before returning to duty after a violation related to drug or alcohol use. This important update could impact your operations, and we recommend compliance by creating a written program.
