SECTION 14 SICK LEAVE


"14.D. Normally, the company will not require proof of illness from a medical provider for absences of less than seven (7) consecutive days. A pilot is not required to state the nature of the illness to crew scheduling. However, discussions of a general health nature with a pilot's immediate supervisor (Chief Pilot) are permitted."


Simple. Concise.
