(instead of the current 1 hour SCC, but only paid when not used). [This would be a nice improvement, imho]
That could be a possible 12 hours extra pay in a RES month! (if they got you for all 6 SCs)
I didn't interpret it to mean that he wants to negotiate for a hard 2-hour callout for SC, instead of leaving it as currently defined. That's bananas.
I might be way off, flame away.
It is multiple points, that is true. I am a reserve guy about 11/12 months a year and I would be fine with not changing the promptly available definition as well as increasing the unused SCC from 1 hr to something higher (especially if still used). My point about the DH period is to prevent the company from essentially assigning an airport standby SC person, without the pay of the VAS. Once you report for your FDP and that DH is gone you are on the hook until your FDP expires, they reassign/reroute you, or release you. Just trying to prevent that cluster from happening.
