In order to comply with the CSU requirement to verify the California
driving records of all State employees authorized to drive on State
business, California State University Northridge has implemented the
Department of Motor Vehicles' Employer Pull Notice Program (EPN).
This program promotes driver safety by monitoring the driving records
of its employees who are required to drive a state vehicle, electric
cart or their personal vehicle on State business. The program is administered
by the Department of Public Safety under the direction of the Chief
of Police.

Who

In order to facilitate the process campus-wide, each department/division/college

the DMV Pull Notice coordinator of any new employees required
to enroll or when enrolled employees separate from the university. |

Who
is required to enroll in the program?
It is a CSU mandated requirement that all State employees authorized
to drive on state business, whether by using a state vehicle,
personal vehicle or electric cart be enrolled in the program.
The University's Vehicle Usage Policy requires that employees
who operate a University vehicle must have a valid California
Driver License and a Defensive Driver Certificate. "Employee"
is defined as CSU faculty, staff, student assistant or work-study
student who is in a state-funded, auxiliary, or enterprise-funded
active pay status at the time they are driving a University vehicle.
A person working on a volunteer basis (Job Class Code 0050), which
includes adjunct faculty, is considered to be an employee for
the purpose of this policy (as per Office of the Chancellor publication
Use of University and Private Vehicles Policies and Regulations,
March 2002). For purposes of this program, employees who drive
on state business three or more times a month are required to
enroll. However, a director, dean, manager, etc. may elect to
enroll their respective employees regardless of how frequently
they drive. |

How
is information about my driving record retrieved?
Driving records are sent to the coordinator by the DMV when an
employee is initially enrolled in the program and on an annual
basis from the date of enrollment. Records are subsequently sent
to the coordinator when there is negative driving activity. For
example, upon enrollment into the program, a driving record will
be forwarded to the coordinator. If there is a ticket issued to
the driver, for a seatbelt violation, for example, then another
record is sent. |

|
What
is the process of enrolling in the program?
The employees must first complete the university's enrollment
form, which is supplied to the designated department coordinator.
|

|
Is
my driving record information kept confidential?
Yes. The driving records supplied by the DMV are sent directly
to the DMV Pull Notice Coordinator and are only reviewed by the
coordinator and the Chief of Police. If there is negative activity
on the record that warrants review, it is discussed directly with
the director, dean or manager of the employee only- information
is not shared with the coordinator of the department. |
