The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), part of the Department of Transportation, is seeking public comments on a new Information Collection Request (ICR) related to medical documentation needed for employees requesting reasonable accommodations. This ICR requires health professionals to submit medical examinations to assess if applicants meet certain medical qualifications. The form, labeled MCSA-3962.1, facilitates determining if FMCSA can offer accommodations without imposing undue hardship. Public comments are invited on the necessity, accuracy, and potential improvements for the data collection process before February 4, 2025.
