Something interesting...
Since Monday, 30 June, I have been trying to get what exactly the lifting and other physical requirements for conway from Michael L the HR guy. He flat refuses to tell me them saying they are the same as DOT???
I researched the USDOT site for the CFR and found nothing for physical lifting as a requirement or disqualifying factor for obtaining or retaining a CDL. There are many specific medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, etc etc (we all know those) but nothing of any physical lifting or related requirements.
Am I missing something? Does anyone know what the current requirements are? I even asked him what if I was a new guy looking to hire on with conway and he stated that i am not a new guy so there is no point in discussing that...i then told him i feel he is circumventing the question and he said that he was...honesty is a good thing...
The bottom line remains...what are the physical requirements? Where can I find them? They took them out of the website merely stating DOT requirements...I am trying to find out what exactly I need to tell my orthopedic to find out what needs to be done to return me to work..he did say contact my insurance case handler which for here in CT is Travellers, but like I told him, everytime i asked her anything she always said to ask my lawyer, so after several tries at that...i dont ask her anymore...for the time of day for that matter...
