Inappropriate or fraudulent use of sick leave by crew members is a valid concern for both the union and management, while concealment of medical problems is a concern to the FAA and general public. If we aren’t willing to address these problems on a cooperative basis, ultimately they will be addressed on a dogmatic one.
I never said I had that Constitutional right. Not sure what you’re trying to get at. Use of sick time does not mean concealment of medical problems. It could mean any number of things. It’s accrual and usage is a negotiated benefit contained in my CBA between my company and union. They could even call it “Personal Time” if that’s what they decided to negotiate.
