    DMV Pull Program Report

    On acceptance as a driver the employee will be enrolled in the DMV Pull Program by the Facilities office. The DMV PP reports any changes in drivers records (via mail) to the Facilities office, along with a yearly report.

    These records are tracked to ensure the driver remains in good standing. Any significant infractions will be reported to the Risk Management office.

    Driver information is submitted to the Risk Management Department for inclusion in the University insurance program.

    The employee driving applicant and the appropriate department head will be notified by email if the driver is accepted or refused for driving privileges.

    Each department will be charged $5.00 per year for each of their employees enrollment in the Pull Program.
