Frequently Asked Questions for Transportation & Logistics Workers

What background checks do truck drivers need?

Truck drivers typically need a criminal record check and a driver abstract showing their driving history. Cross-border drivers need additional US background checks.

Can I drive commercially with a criminal record?

It depends on the offence. Driving-related offences, theft, and drug trafficking are serious concerns for employers. Other offences may not prevent employment.

Do delivery drivers need background checks?

Most delivery companies require criminal record checks, especially for drivers entering customer homes or businesses. This includes Amazon, FedEx, UPS, and local courier services.

What is a FAST card and do I need one?

FAST (Free and Secure Trade) cards expedite border crossings for pre-approved drivers. They require a separate background check through CBSA. Not all drivers need them.

How does a DUI affect transportation employment?

A DUI significantly impacts transportation employment, especially for commercial drivers. Most employers will not hire drivers with recent DUI convictions. Older offences may be considered on a case-by-case basis.
