The California Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1988 requires employers to monitor the public driving record of employees who drive as part of their employment. In order to comply with this law, UCSB participates in the California Department of Motor Vehicles Employee Pull Notice (EPN) Program.
The goals of this program are to protect public safety, verify that each driver has a valid driver’s license, identify problem drivers, and minimize risk to the University. State law prescribes criminal penalties for employing or continuing to employ as a driver, a person with a disqualifying action taken against his or her license.
The law requires that employees hired primarily as drivers or who routinely drive as part of their employment shall be enrolled in the EPN program. It also requires enrollment of drivers with Class A or Class B licenses, and drivers with Hazardous Materials Endorsement or Special Certificates.
