DOT Compliance and Fleet Safety: Why It Matters More Than Ever

DOT Compliance and Fleet Safety: Why It Matters More Than Ever

🚛 Compliance isn’t about penalties—it’s about prevention and protecting people.

In transportation, compliance measures like background screening and drug testing aren’t designed to punish—they’re built to safeguard public roads, uphold federal regulations, and support a culture of accountability.

Think of the trucking industry as a high-stakes environment where safety, much like in a manufacturing facility or school zone, must always come first. That’s why WorkforceQA focuses on clear, consistent, and compliant testing programs that respect drivers while meeting DOT and FMCSA standards.

In this episode of DRIVE, Chelsea Faulkner speaks with Marc Bourne, VP of Background Screening, Training & Compliance Services, and Grady Phillips, CRO at WorkforceQA. Both bring technical and operational expertise to the discussion as they explore how screening and compliance processes can be structured to be fair, efficient, and driver-centric—without compromising on regulatory integrity.

They also share how employers can move beyond basic compliance into building trust-based programs that reinforce safety, reduce liability, and align with federal mandates.

this conversation provides practical, actionable insight tailored for safety and compliance leaders.
