Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) Check and Evaluation

Your company should request a MVR for driver applicants being considered for employment in which driving company vehicles or operating their own vehicle for company business will be required. An MVR should be requested from every state the applicant has lived in during the past number years determined by your company.

The OSH Manager should review all MVR information to determine if driver applicant meets your company's qualification standards regarding driving records.

A formal review of the driver's MVR should be conducted on at least an annual basis to ensure that existing drivers are meeting the established qualification standards.

MVR's are personal and confidential and should only be discussed with the driver or other persons authorized to know. The safety or human resource manager should receive results of the MVR check and ensure any needed corrective action is applied in a timely manner.
