So...new "Pilot Sick Verification Form" is on the street.

In order for your sick time to be "verified," here's what you must provide some pretty personal health info to the company.

Once filled out, you must send it to the company via email. We have no idea who will be reviewing it, or who will have access to it (personal health information).

This is all absolute BULLSH!T. Don't want to give that info? Well, for your 5th sick call each year, they are contractually permitted to demand that info--and more--via your health records directly from your own doctor.

Another HUGE concession, not to mention an egregious breach of privacy.

None of the wording or requirements to "verify" sickness are contractual. I'm curious to see if ALPA allows this nonsense to stand. I'm guessing they won't make a peep.
