What Is A DAC Report?
The DAC employment report is a detailed summary of a trucker’s work history in the trucking industry. Most trucking companies today participate in sharing this information about truckers.
As a truck driver, you can request your DAC or Drive-A-Check driver’s report once every 12 months. The free report lists traffic incidents and employer-related problems such as discharges and company policy violations. It is important that you periodically verify the accuracy of the information on your report. You will be able to view your entire employment history and driving record in the state where you are employed. Employers looking to hire truck drivers with good records will obtain a copy of this report during the final stages of the hiring process. The DAC employment report contains items such as number of accidents, reasons for quitting or why they were fired, if they are eligible for re-hire, type of driving, commodities hauled, types of trailers pulled and MUCH more.
DAC Trucking Solutions assembles reports with information obtained from various sources including, but not limited to, a driver’s previous employers. One thing to keep in mind is that the more often you change employers, the higher the likelihood that misinformation may end up on your report. Human error can occur at DAC, just like at any other credit reporting agency, and employers may not always provide objective interpretations of events. DAC is not required to verify the information supplied by employers unless or until a report is disputed by the driver
You can run but you can’t hide! As a matter of fact hiding from, or ignoring, your DAC report can be one of the most damaging things you can do to your career. One insurance company report indicates that over 85% of the 200 largest carriers utilize DAC reports in their hiring decisions. Another report places the total number of carriers subscribing to DAC Services at more than 6000. Chances are good your name is in their database and chances are equally good that a prospective employer will be requesting a DAC report before any other pre-employment action. Another thing to consider is the possibility that, beside potential employers, potential creditors may have access to your DAC information. One thing mortgage lenders and other credit providers look for are indications of responsibility and stability or a lack thereof. Just like credit reports, you absolutely, positively, must know what is on your record. It’s true that you’re not the one responsible for providing information to DAC and you’re not the one responsible for compiling the information into a report but you are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of your report. The only person that can or will effect a positive change in negative information is YOU!
