DOT-Compliant Screening
FMCSA-ready reports for every driver you hire.
THE CHALLENGE
Every Driver You Hire Is a Risk Decision.
Transportation companies face a unique combination of regulatory pressure and public safety responsibility. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations require specific pre-employment screening for CDL drivers, and failure to comply can result in fines, out-of-service orders, and loss of operating authority.
Beyond compliance, a single accident involving a driver with a disqualifying history can expose your company to catastrophic negligent entrustment liability. SaffHire's transportation screening program is built to keep your fleet compliant, your drivers qualified, and your company protected.
FMCSA Compliance Requirements
DOT-regulated carriers must follow strict pre-employment and ongoing screening requirements under 49 CFR Part 391. SaffHire delivers fully compliant reports that meet federal standards.
Fast Driver Onboarding
Driver shortages mean you cannot afford slow screening. SaffHire returns MVR and criminal results in as little as 5 minutes so you can onboard qualified drivers without delay.
Negligent Entrustment Risk
Putting an unqualified driver behind the wheel exposes your company to significant liability. Thorough pre-employment screening is your first line of defense.
High Driver Turnover
The trucking industry sees annual turnover rates above 90% at large carriers. SaffHire's no-minimum, no-setup-fee model scales with your hiring volume without punishing you for fluctuations.

COMPLIANCE
Built for DOT-Regulated Carriers
