A penalty for "trying". If it's just equal, there's no deterrent; in fact it would be a "there's no cost for trying, and if someone catches it, then oh so what it costs the same anyway".
A one-off might, maybe, possibly, happen. But the ongoing pattern of non-compliance is egregious. The only fix is a HARSH cost-for-trying, such that they decide it might be in THEIR best interest to in the future follow the contract.
Exactly!

We cannot allow them to operate in "deny deny deny" shady insurance company mode with our scope, with no penalty if they get caught other than having to pay what they would have paid had they not been caught. There has to be significant penalties.

I'd really like to make some progress in regards to pay errors. I find it mind-blowing how many pay errors the company makes... that are only found and rectified by pilots and the union they fund themselves. Best I can tell, their $MILLIONS in pay errors (e.g., reroutes) are gross negligence and I'm perplexed why this practice continues unabated. If the company signs off on the PWA, they are signing off on their ability to remain in compliance with it. Clearly, their systems/training/personnel are inadequate to handle their obligations.

If I discover a pay error on my own, it should pay out double, if not triple. Without such penalties, this madness won't stop.
