It’s true.
I don’t understand the situation. Are you saying that he was under the 100 hours and had used less than 50 the last 2 years and has to verify because “..........”?

There are quite a few things listed in the PWA that can’t be used “solely” question a sick leave event(s). If somebody is being asked to verify outside of what is normally required, then they probably believe they have a good faith reason and GS volume would not be one.

When I have seen someone questioned when they otherwise don’t meet the normal reasons, they have done something that would cause the company to question their sick leave like trying to jumpseat to Cabo on UAL while our sick etc.
