Labor Code and Airlines

[chperplt]

Anyone know what exemption within the labor law allows airlines to pay on a min guarantee vs actual work (duty) hours?

Good question. How about not giving the crew breaks after so many hours of work. No lunch break and no crew meals. Plus working 14 hours almost every duty day.

CBA and idiots like the "ALPA morons" at Mesa.

More to it than that... There has to be a something in the actual US Labor Code that allows it.. Otherwise we all need to sue for back pay!

Aviation is like a root-beer enema it could be sweet....it could be cool and if it wasn't for the arse part everyone would be doing it.

It's a simple enough question. If you don't know the answer, don't pipe in.

You'd probably welcome ol' Nosehair's lips around your pencil d**k.

Probably language buried somewhere within Subchapter II of the Railway Labor Act of 1926, amended in 1936 to include air transport workers.

In California, a collective bargaining agreement supercedes at least some state labor laws.
