For the benefit of those without the attention span to read the above post:
Flight Management directing psych evals is a thing of the past. Thanks to our contract, they can only direct MEDICAL evaluations.
Few may notice, but our current contract embodies Barney's principle, as it specifically prohibits flight management from ordering pilots to undergo psychological or psychiatric examination. (Section 15.G.1) They may refer him to the Company's aeromedical advisor "if the Company has a reasonable basis to question whether a pilot has developed or recovered from an impairment to his ability to perform his duties as a pilot." (15.D.1)
