HARTFORD, Conn., June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Foley, a leading provider of DOT compliance, data monitoring, and hiring software solutions, is stepping up its efforts to assist companies in navigating the new phase of the FMCSA Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse regulations set to take effect this year. With significant changes on the horizon, Foley is committed to ensuring that businesses employing commercial drivers are fully prepared and compliant.The FMCSA Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse, a critical tool in enhancing road safety by maintaining records of commercial drivers' drug and alcohol violations, is undergoing updates that will impact how companies manage their compliance.Starting November 18, 2024, new regulations will require State Driver Licensing Agencies (SDLAs) to begin downgrading the commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) and commercial driver's permits (CPLs) of drivers listed as "prohibited" due to violations, which could significantly affect the operational capabilities of many companies.Joel Sitak, CEO of Foley, emphasizes the importance of readiness: "At Foley, we understand the challenges these regulatory changes bring to your operations. We've provided compliance with the Clearinghouse regulation since it originally took effect, and now our goal is to equip you with the tools and knowledge to not only meet these new requirements but to thrive under them. We are here to help you maintain a safe, compliant, and efficient workforce."To further aid companies in understanding and preparing for these changes, Foley is hosting a free webinar titled "2024 FMCSA Clearinghouse-II Update: What You Need to Know About New Regulations." Scheduled for June 27th at 2:00 PM ET, the webinar will cover the essentials of the new Clearinghouse-II regulations, their impact, and how businesses can prepare for the changes.Attendees will also learn how Foley's Dash Platform can support them in automating manual Clearinghouse requirements, following DOT drug and alcohol testing protocols, and continuously monitor drivers to quickly catch red flags.

HARTFORD, Conn. & NORTHUMBERLAND, Pa., May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Foley and Keystone have built a strategic partnership, combining Foley's industry-leading driver data software and DOT compliance programs with Keystone's unique commercial insurance and risk management solutions for US companies with transportation sectors.Keystone logoWith a 30 percent increase in commercial insurance premiums and underwriters requiring tangible proof of safety initiatives taken by companies with employees who drive, it can be challenging for these businesses to find affordable insurance coverage. While numerous factors out of their control (i.e. inflation), can impact their insurance costs, companies can control their risk profiles by implementing data monitoring programs that track driver safety behavior.Joel Sitak, CEO of Foley Services, says this sort of hard data will benefit insurance agents who negotiate with underwriters on behalf of their clients. He explains, "The agent can really show the underwriter that their client is serious about reducing risk."Sitak adds that it is critical to have access to this data the minute it registers with the FMCSA, which is how Foley's CSA Monitor works."It's getting access to that data faster so that you can take action on it before it becomes a problem in the underwriting process," Sitak says. "And by getting ahead of that, your underwriters are going to look favorably upon that situation."As a result of this partnership, Foley and Keystone have cobranded a new white paper, Commercial Insurance Mayhem: How to Stop the Bleeding
