INFORMATION DATE 19891003 DESCRIPTION USDOL Program Highlights, Discrimination Protection for Trucking Employees SUBJECT Discrimination protection for trucking employees U.S. Department of Labor Program Highlights Fact Sheet No.OSHA 89-30 DISCRIMINATION PROTECTION FOR TRUCKING EMPLOYEES Surface Transportation Assistance Act of 1982 (STAA) gives the Secretary of Labor authority to investigate complaints by truckers, mechanics, freight handlers, and others involved in interstate trucking who believe they have been discharged or discriminated against for protected safety activities. Since provisions of Section 405 of the STAA covering commercial motor vehicle are similar to nondiscrimination requirements in Section 11© of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, the Secretary has given OSHA responsibility for investigating these complaints. The Section 405 provisions set forth a longer time period for filing complaints, permit immediate reinstatement of discharged employees, and authorize compensatory damages and attorney's fees for aggrieved employees whose complaints are substantiated. STAA DISCRIMINATION PROTECTIONS Section 405 prohibits an employer from firing, demoting, or in any other way discriminating against an employee who: refuses to operate a vehicle which fails to meet safety regulations. reports violations of vehicle safety requirements. alleges that he or she has been exposed to significant hazards. or testifies or otherwise participates in safety related proceedings.

... and support) and what training they will need. The where' part is probably the easiest consideration. The when' is very important. Lay out a timetable that allows you to set up the structure (personnel, training, space, marketing, etc.) that will enable you to achieve the results you desire. Proceeding too quickly will cause things to fall between the cracks; proceeding too slowly could cause you to miss some business opportunities. As with traditional insurance operations, a number of good business practices are equally important. Education certainly is, and so is communication with your staff and your clients. Some type of exposure analysis checklist gives solid evidence of your professionalism and will, among other things, reduce your E&O risk-as you can see in this story: A trucking firm brought a suit against an agent for failing to provide adequate Liability limits on its Commercial Auto policy. This came to light after an auto accident in which the client's tractor-trailer rear-ended an auto that was driven by a pregnant woman, who then went into a coma. The trucking company's carrier paid its $300,000 liability limit and the trucking firm agreed to a $3.6 million arbitration award, assigning its inadequate limits claim against the agent to the injured plaintiff.
