"personal leave" aka vacation time that you earn. This is paid time off or personal reasons.
Sick leave is what it sounds like.
However, The company could pay back a portion of sick leave upon retirement or separation, to inventivise proper use of this time.

Back to the topic at hand.....there’s a VAST difference between “how things should be” and “how they are”. Previous posters are 100% correct when they say that UAL is not your employer, and being denied the CPP because you bang in sick too much isn’t a punishment BY YOUR EMPLOYER. That’s not to say it’s fair.....but clearly it never was to begin with.
