FAQs

Yes. Encompass offers training courses for various industries including construction, utilities, manufacturing, retail, transportation, and more. The training meets requirements set forth by OSHA, DOL, DOT, EPA, PHMSA, and more.

Section 390.3(e) requires anyone operating a commercial motor vehicle (CMV)  to know and comply with applicable safety regulations. All drivers must be: 

  • Instructed on and knowledgeable of the regulations
  • Able to safely operate the vehicle by virtue of “training or experience”
  • Knowledgeable on the vehicle, cargo securement, vehicle inspections, and instructed on regulatory issues and safe driving practice
  • CDL positions are subject to entry-level driver training, DOT drug and alcohol testing policy and educational materials, and hazmat training (if applicable)

Many facets of onboarding and training drivers can be applied to your CMV and non-CMV drivers. Promote a corporate safety culture by creating policies and presenting training specific to your vehicles. It’s a good business practice that protects your brand, your bottom-line, and your employees and drivers. Properly trained drivers result in fewer accidents, freight claims, injuries, customer complaints, fines and penalties, and vehicle downtimes.

Encompass training includes corrective action training titles. Conducting corrective action training reduces unnecessary turnover and the risk of negligent supervision.
