CBA has always contained verbiage indicating the desire for a Physician's statement "explaining" why we called in Sick

And it's always had language indicating The Company can request one if it "has a good faith, and objective reason" to do so; or SL over a Major Holiday as defined in the CBA.

I would say that under BM the heat was turned up so high it was prima facie that The Company was requesting verification in a manner that wasn't in Good Faith. Under BM, seemingly calling in Sick if you had Reserve days was an indication that you were abusing your sick leave and generated a notification of potential adverse consequences up to termination.
While it's nice that RF seems to have set a more realistic STS value, think it will be nicer to have additional set of eyes looking at it prior to generating a note request. Just really wish the timeline was set at a firm 24 hours

But I can't think of any contractual reason that would require the company to continue tracking SL usage w/ Paper and Pencil versus an updated computer system.
That they should "go back" to the old system. Should we go back to telephonic or faxed bidding? Eliminate PFC and make all of the drops\adds\open time perusals over the phone?
