Join WFQA’s Cindy Faber,  Occupational Health Advisor, and Grady Phillips, CRO, for an informative discussion covering DOT medical examinations, sleep apnea considerations, and the latest medical certification requirements. We’ll explore how medical examiners evaluate driver fitness for duty, when additional sleep apnea evaluation may be appropriate, and what employers need to know about the transition to electronic Medical Examiner’s Certificates (MECs).

Topics will include:

• DOT physical requirements and medical certification.
• Understanding sleep apnea and its impact on driver safety.
• When sleep apnea screening or additional evaluation may be recommended.
• Medical examiner considerations and certification decisions.
• Electronic Medical Examiner’s Certificates (MECs): Understanding the NRII transition and what the expiration of the paper certificate exemption means for drivers and employers.
• Employer responsibilities and maintaining driver qualification records.
