Do you have a difficult time admitting when you are wrong? FAA exams do not “go right to the company.” That would be a violation of federal law.

This was a company directed occupational fitness for duty exam. That there should be some overlapping in the testing between what the FAA would request on a neuropsychological exam and what the company would mandate certainly isn’t surprising.

But all the more reason why the content of the exam, the decision mechanism for who could perform it, and the confidentiality of the medical information produced should all be negotiated in the contract.
