Its a shame they can't concede that to fix the problem is simple, win-win and will not in any way affect the sustainability of the business.
No airline management will EVER be able to stem the use of sick leave and fatigue leave while pilots and medical practitioners have the final sign off on whether the crew member is indeed sick or fatigued. That's a war they can never win.
Me thinks the carrot approach will yield better results than attempting the big stick.
