I know that, my question was why is it not in the PWA when they certainly know how to put that language in there as they do it in other sections.
I also thought that the SRH was derived from the PWA, not the other way around. If that’s the case, it shouldn’t be inventing restrictions out of whole cloth.
The most likely answer is that the union negotiated 12.G.13 with these restrictions and just forgot to add the language into the PWA. But you know if the shoe were on the other foot, the company would magically “re-interpret” their intent and point to the actual PWA language if it benefited them.

Yes but, 4-6 hours extra pay every month is nice. Especially when staffing is good and WS pick ups keep you from having to work. SC normally means no long call for 18 hours prior because they put you on rest, unless they forget to notify you of the rest which means SC is useless.

Dodged a bullet because there was a senior to me guy who got whacked with a 0500 report because he was RAW group 2 vs 3.
semi related, anyon else think the 2359-0859 SC window is bogus? Id rather do a 2100-0300 or a 0300-1200 one.
Being rested to do either a delayed international 9 hour flight while still being rested to do the 0855 report for MEX (I'm nyc 7ER) is kind of a hard needle to thread.
I don't remember them ever doing the 2359-0859 one before this summer. And I'm basically a reserve 10-11 months out of the year on purpose guy.

0400-1200 and 2100-0300 covers all the bases. They have a million dudes sitting SC anyways.

There's probably some strategy to tactically YS'ing a more desireable trip or 2 early/mid month to avoid getting crap trips towards the end of the month.
