DOT employers often turn to their EAPs for SAP services, training for supervisors, and general consultation on compliance with regulations.DOT’s rules require that supervisors of DOT-covered employees receive specific training in reasonable suspicion, observation and documentation. This requirement creates a unique opportunity for EAPs and for free-lance trainers. This course will provide critical information to ensure that your training accurately presents content that DOT requires. This course will also examine the employer’s responsibilities under these rules and a detailed explanation of the actual rules.
