regarding the "good faith" basis--
"Note: Such individual circumstances may not be derived solely from the amount of sick leave used by the pilot or the frequency of his sick occurrences."
Translation: the amount and frequency of sick leave use is ALWAYS one of the reasons, it just can't be the ONLY reason.
But theres more. They recently stated that the purpose of a CPO call requiring verification is to "ensure the sick leave benefit is administered consistently, equitably, and in compliance with the PWA." Ughhhh huh.
Right out of the chute they have 4 per-packaged "circumstances" for every pilot on the list: amount and use, and to make sure the benefit is administered consistently (everyone is subject to harassment), equitably, and in compliance with the PWA. Throw in another "circumstance" for good measure and it would nearly impossible to show lack of good faith.
Funny how the company wants to make sure the PWA is being followed in THIS situation. Thanks ALPA! Another win-lose!
