Who Needs to Be in a Consortium?

Any driver operating a commercial motor vehicle that requires a CDL must be enrolled in a DOT drug and alcohol testing program.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a consortium? A consortium pools multiple carriers together for random testing. The FMCSA requires that at least 50% of CDL drivers be randomly tested for drugs and 10% for alcohol each year. Being in a consortium ensures you meet that requirement even with a small fleet.

What happens if a driver fails a test? We notify you and the driver immediately. The driver must be removed from safety-sensitive duties and cannot return until they complete the return-to-duty process with a Substance Abuse Professional (SAP).

Do owner-operators need to be in a consortium? Yes. If you hold a CDL and drive your own truck, you must be enrolled in a drug and alcohol testing program, even if you're the only driver in your company.

What types of testing are required? Pre-employment (before starting work), random (unannounced throughout the year), post-accident (after certain crashes), reasonable suspicion (when a supervisor observes signs of impairment), return-to-duty (before returning after a violation), and follow-up (ongoing testing after a violation).
