Getting a doctors note at the companies discretion?
Protection of JM and extensions is your choice. For me I will be gladly be JM on a day off for double pay and a comp day off. I personally have no issue with it. I feel it penalizes the company enough and gives them the flexability to use it.
Commuter policy improved from what we have right now. I am a commuter and I use it. Primary and biggest improvement is the fact that we can use any 121 carrier for our commute in.
At the road show it was stated clearly that the company could no longer make blanket demands for Drs notes. The company must look at individual situations to determine whether the note is warranted.
I am also concerned about the extension language but it seems VERY costly for the company to do it. The Pinnacle Pilots I spoke to thought it was a huge improvement.
I am a bit concerned about the commuter policy. With the flights being so full going to a review board after using it twice seems like a getting worse situation. I know people who use CIH a lot.
On the boards someone wrote that the contract was unenforceable because the management only allows so many grievances to arbitration...that is no longer the case.
I was also happy with the explanation about the secondary RR issue. I was uncomfortable with that.
