Participants Aviation employees who were tested for drugs during 1995–2005 under
the post‐accident testing program (cases, n = 4977) or under the random testing
program (controls, n = 1 129 922).
Findings The prevalence of drug violations was 0.64% [95% confidence interval (CI):
0.62–0.65%] in random drug tests and 1.82% (95% CI: 1.47–2.24%) in post‐accident
tests. The odds of accident involvement for employees who tested positive for drugs
was almost three times the odds for those who tested negative (odds ratio 2.90, 95%
CI: 2.35–3.57), with an estimated attributable risk of 1.2%. Marijuana accounted for
67.3% of the illicit drugs detected. The proportion of illicit drugs represented by
amphetamines increased progressively during the study period, from 3.4% in 1995 to
10.3% in 2005 (P < 0.0001).
