As a reminder, the Department of Defense (DOD) mandates that all labor servicing household goods shipments be properly qualified and successfully complete a background check. This requirement is fundamental in protecting service members and maintaining the integrity of the DP3 program.
As the moving industry continues to face challenges finding qualified background checked labor, NFC is working to strengthen the direction of our network to ensure consistent compliance, accountability, and service quality across all shipments.
To support this initiative, NFC has established a partnership with LaborNet, the moving industry’s first consolidated and centralized platform for sourcing background checked labor. This labor platform will serve as a primary tool in aligning our network with DOD requirements and NFC expectations.
There is no cost to utilize LaborNet. Drivers must utilize compliant labor sources, and LaborNet offers three direct ways to secure qualified support:
- Submit a general request to all qualified, available labor in the area, allowing individuals to accept assignments based on availability.
- Submit a request to a vetted local crew, who can coordinate and provide labor from within their established team.
- Search within the platform and directly invite a specific, pre-qualified individual to service the move.
This approach ensures a standardized, compliant, and reliable labor sourcing process across our network and reinforces our collective responsibility to meet DOD requirements while delivering a consistent, high-quality customer experience.
