• (TCO H) David is a former drug user who has spent
  time in jail. For the past three years, he has
  not used drugs, and he now operates a forklift at
  a small construction company. However, lately, he
  has begun having seizures, or flashbacks, as a
  result of his earlier use of the drug PCP. He has
  been carefully evaluated by EAP professionals and
  was found to be clean of current drug use
  indeed, they say flashbacks of this nature are
  quite common in ex-addicts. Mishandling of a
  forklift can be dangerous to both David and his
  coworkers. However, he has already had flashbacks
  while at the controls, and in each case, he
  responded by releasing a handle that simply
  stopped the machine. Driving the forklift is the
  only work that he is qualified to do within this
  company, and he has pleaded to keep his job.
