DISCLOSURE FOR CONSUMER REPORTS
In connection with your employment or owner-operator (independent contractor) application, C.R. England may order one or more consumer report(s) (commonly known as "background reports" or "background checks") about you from one or more consumer reporting agencies. If you are hired or engaged as an owner-operator (independent contractor), additional consumer reports may be obtained in connection with and throughout your employment for employment purposes or for the legitimate business purpose of evaluating you as an owner-operator.
To the extent allowed by law, the consumer reports may include information concerning your character, general reputation, personal characteristics, mode of living, drug and alcohol test results, motor vehicle records, driving records, criminal history, public court records, employment history (including names and dates of previous employers, reason for termination of employment, work experience, and accidents), social security number validation, education, licensure, or verification of other information supplied by you. Such reports may be obtained from private and public record sources, including sanctions databases, CDLIS (including but not limited to CDLIS Central Site, CDLIS Master Pointer Record data and your driver record from the jurisdiction identified in the CDLIS data, in accordance with applicable state law and the Driver Privacy Protection Act), former employers, public court records, and federal, state, and other government agencies that maintain such records.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE
REGARDING BACKGROUND REPORTS FROM THE PSP Online Service In connection with your application for employment with C.R. England ("Prospective Employer"), Prospective Employer, its employees, agents or contractors may obtain one or more reports regarding your driving, and safety inspection history from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
(FMCSA).
When the application for employment is submitted in person, if the Prospective Employer uses any information it obtains from FMCSA in a decision to not hire you or to make any other adverse employment decision regarding you, the Prospective Employer will provide you with a copy of the report upon which its decision was based and a written summary of your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act before taking any final adverse action. If any final adverse action is taken against you based upon your driving history or safety report, the Prospective Employer will notify you that the action has been taken and that the action was based in part or in whole on this report. When the application for employment is submitted by mail, telephone, computer, or other similar means, if the Prospective Employer uses any information it obtains from FMCSA in a decision to not hire you or to make any other adverse employment decision regarding you, the Prospective Employer must provide you within three business days of taking adverse action oral, written or electronic notification: that adverse action has been taken based in whole or in part on information obtained from FMCSA; the name, address, and the toll free telephone number of FMCSA; that the FMCSA did not make the decision to take the adverse action and is unable to provide you the specific reasons why the adverse action was taken; and that you may, upon providing proper identification, request a free copy of the report and may dispute with the FMCSA the accuracy or completeness of any information or report. If you request a copy of a driver record from the Prospective Employer who procured the report, then, within 3 business days of receiving your request, together with proper identification, the Prospective Employer must send or provide to you a copy of your report and a summary of your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Neither the Prospective Employer nor the FMCSA contractor supplying the crash and safety information has the capability to correct any safety data that appears to be incorrect. You may challenge the accuracy of the data by submitting a request to https://dataqs.fmcsa.dot.gov. If you challenge crash or inspection information reported by a State, FMCSA cannot change or correct this data. Your request will be forwarded by the DataQs system to the appropriate State for adjudication.
Any crash or inspection in which you were involved will display on your PSP report. Since the PSP report does not report, or assign, or imply fault, it will include all Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) crashes where you were a driver or co-driver and where those crashes were reported to FMCSA, regardless of fault. Similarly, all inspections, with or without violations, appear on the PSP report. State citations associated with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) violations that have been adjudicated by a court of law will also appear, and remain, on a PSP report. The Prospective Employer cannot obtain background reports from FMCSA without your authorization. AUTHORIZATION
If you agree that the Prospective Employer may obtain such background reports, please read the following and sign below: I authorize C.R. England ("Prospective Employer") to access the FMCSA Pre-Employment Screening Program (PSP) system to seek information regarding my commercial driving safety record and information regarding my safety inspection history. I understand that I am authorizing the release of safety performance information including crash data from the previous five (5) years and inspection history from the previous three (3) years. I understand and acknowledge that this release of information may assist the Prospective Employer to make a determination regarding my suitability as an employee.
I further understand that neither the Prospective Employer nor the FMCSA contractor supplying the crash and safety information has the capability to correct any safety data that appears to be incorrect. I understand I may challenge the accuracy of the data by submitting a request to https://dataqs.fmcsa.dot.gov. If I challenge crash or inspection information reported by a State, FMCSA cannot change or correct this data. I understand my request will be forwarded by the DataQs system to the appropriate State for adjudication. I understand that any crash or inspection in which I was involved will display on my PSP report. Since the PSP report does not report, or assign, or imply fault, I acknowledge it will include all CMV crashes where I was a driver or co-driver and where those crashes were reported to FMCSA, regardless of fault. Similarly, I understand all inspections, with or without violations, will appear on my PSP report, and State citations associated with FMCSR violations that have been adjudicated by a court of law will also appear, and remain, on my PSP report. I have read the above Disclosure Regarding Background Reports provided to me by Prospective Employer and I understand that if I sign this Disclosure and Authorization, Prospective Employer may obtain a report of my crash and inspection history. I hereby authorize Prospective Employer and its employees, authorized agents, and/or affiliates to obtain the information authorized above. Printed Name:

Consent for Limited Queries of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse
I hereby provide consent to C.R. England to conduct a limited query of the FMCSA Commercial Driver's License Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse to determine whether drug or alcohol violation information about me exists in the Clearinghouse. I understand this consent shall remain on file and shall serve as ongoing consent for C.R. England to conduct multiple limited queries of the Clearinghouse at any time during my employment or contract period without asking me for additional consent. I understand that if I refuse to provide consent for C.R. England to conduct a limited query of the Clearinghouse, C.R. England is required to prohibit me from performing safety-sensitive functions, including operating a commercial motor vehicle. I understand that if the limited query conducted by C.R. England indicates that drug or alcohol information exists about me in the Clearinghouse, the FMCSA will not disclose that information to C.R. England unless I give additional specific consent within the Clearinghouse. However, I understand that C.R. England will be required to conduct a full query of the Clearinghouse within 24 hours after a limited query indicates that drug or alcohol information exists and that if I do not grant consent within the Clearinghouse for that full query I will be removed from performing safety-sensitive functions, including operating a commercial motor vehicle. 01-18-2023
