All employees required to utilize a motor vehicle or operate equipment as part of their employment duties must maintain a valid driver’s license as required by the duties of the position, and an acceptable driving record. 

Risk Management may run a motor vehicle department check to obtain an employee’s driving record. It is an employee’s responsibility to provide a copy of their current driver’s license for the personnel file. Any changes in a driving record including, but not limited to, driving infractions and suspensions, must be immediately reported to the City’s Risk Management Division.

State law requires all motorists to carry auto liability insurance. It is against the law to drive without insurance. Employees using their own vehicle as a part of their employment duties may be asked to provide Risk Management with a current proof of insurance statement or card. 

The City’s Administrative Policies, Section #902 - Driving Standards for New Hires addresses the City’s policy when hiring an employee into a position that is required to drive.
