My employees drive trucks with gross vehicle weight (GVW) ratings of 28,000 pounds, and they also paint gas pipelines. What type of Drug and Alcohol Testing Program do they need to be in?
Your employees must be in a program that complies with both Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) rules. The FMCSA regulations apply because your employees drive trucks with a GVW rating greater than 26,000 pounds and the PHMSA regulations apply because they work on pipelines.
