may be considered after successful treatment or, in cases where no treatment is
necessary, after cessation of the problematic use of the substances and upon
determination that the person’s continued performance of the function is unlikely to
jeopardize safety.

Note: Guidance on suitable methods of identification which may include bio-chemical

testing on such occasions as pre employment, upon reasonable suspicion after
accident/incident, at intervals and at random is contained in the manual on
prevention of problematic use of substances in Aviation Workplace vide ICAO
