GROUNDS FOR PROVISIONAL INABILITY

Examples of grounds for doubting the ability to safely
exercise the privileges of the licence may be that the licence holder is:

influence of psychoactive substances;

(b)       unfit to
perform the duties due to injury, fatigue, sickness, stress, including
critical incident stress or other similar causes;

[applicable until 3 August 2024 - ED
Decision 2023/011/R]

(a)       Examples of grounds for doubting the ability to safely
exercise the privileges of the licence may be that the licence holder is:

(1)       under the influence of psychoactive substances;

(2)       unable to perform the duties due to injury, fatigue,
sickness, stress, including critical incident stress or other similar causes;

(3)       not meeting all the competence-related requirements set out
in the unit competence scheme.

(b)       Provisional inability based on the grounds referred to in
points (a)(1) and (a)(2) is meant to cover only short periods of time (for
example: generally before the next scheduled duty period, but no longer than 7
days) with the aim of allowing the affected air traffic controller to consult
an aero-medical examiner regarding the doubts about being able to safely
exercise the privileges of their licence.

In such cases, the provisional
inability may only remain applicable until a medical review is performed by an
aero-medical examiner.
