There are very few, if any, QOL improvements in the aips. None whatsoever in the sick leave TA. Just onerous changes that make our lives more difficult.
The AIPs are 1-2% of the final product... let's not lose the forest for the trees here.
All of what you're describing has not been agreed upon yet (min day, vacation, medical, hourly rates and DC). It has been recognized that there is room for some adjustments in the AIPs.
