What is the FTA SAP Program?

The FTA SAP Program is required for employees in transit systems who hold safety-sensitive positions, including:

Bus drivers
Rail operators
Maintenance technicians
Dispatchers and control center staff
Transit supervisors and managers in safety-sensitive roles

Under 49 CFR Part 40, any violation requires completion of the SAP return-to-duty process before resuming work.
