Is There A Way To See Your EXACT Amount Of Time Worked At Each CDL Company You Have Worked For?
Topic 33210 | Page 1
Legitimate companies should show on the DAC , but if you don't see these, take a look at your previous W-2 tax forms.
DAC:
Drive-A-Check Report
A truck drivers DAC report will contain detailed information about their job history of the last 10 years as a CDL driver (as required by the DOT).
It may also contain your criminal history, drug test results, DOT infractions and accident history. The program is strictly voluntary from a company standpoint, but most of the medium-to-large carriers will participate.
Most trucking companies use DAC reports as part of their hiring and background check process. It is extremely important that drivers verify that the information contained in it is correct, and have it fixed if it's not.

I'll have to look on tax forms, my DAC I got in the mail just seemed all kinds of messed up. Like some information was missing. Only showed Western Express as information of who I've worked for. Just showed no violations or anything, but allot of info was missing.
I went to the HireRight website and submitted for a copy of my information, I may try requesting again to see if I get better luck. Didn't even show any comments left by companies. Don't most leave comments on your report even if you didn't mess something up?
BMI:
Body mass index (BMI)
BMI is a formula that uses weight and height to estimate body fat. For most people, BMI provides a reasonable estimate of body fat. The BMI's biggest weakness is that it doesn't consider individual factors such as bone or muscle mass. BMI may:
- Underestimate body fat for older adults or other people with low muscle mass
- Overestimate body fat for people who are very muscular and physically fit
It's quite common, especially for men, to fall into the "overweight" category if you happen to be stronger than average. If you're pretty strong but in good shape then pay no attention.

No they don't and many do not show that you even worked for them. It's quite common to have a "messed up" DAC record. After 3 years, any write-ups drop off your record.
I had 4 non-preventables in November 2015, December 2016, January 2018 and July's 2018. I recently pulled my DAC. Nothing is on it except that I drove for Interide from March 2017 to September 2018. Nothing else was on it and two of the non-preventables was while I was driving for them.
Many companies don't use Hire Right and some don't look at it when they hire you.

As for exact dates, like month, day and year, the exact date is generally not necessary. I just use month and year and that satisfies many companies. Now if you don't know the month then your W-2 wouldn't help you because it just gives the money you earned with that company during that year. They don't give any dates you were with any companies.

At OD it was, I put down I started at West Side on a Monday, which was when I started orientation. OD rejected it because I wasn't officially hired until Wednesday.

Wow that’s strict. I I didn’t know some companies cared about exact dates that much. I try to keep track of exact dates but I only know the month I started for most of the jobs I’ve worked

I want to get better at building a legitimate resume. My only issue is trying to remember exact dates I worked for each company. One of the many downsides of "company hopping" when my cdl was fresh. I know that companies when applying can see your entire driving record, so accuracy in putting dates on resume is important. Is there a way, that I could even pay to see my entire driving history for each company? Or could I even call each company and ask my employment dates? I submitted a request for my DAC report, however it seemed like the report was incomplete and didn't show dates, or even every company I worked for.
