So as the company are introducing sector pay, the argument against doing so is “what if I’m not rostered to fly as much as someone else”.

so to protect that the company will guarantee your sector pay over the year will be at least 85% of the average number of sectors flown by pilots that year. But the guarantee is removed if you call sick 3 times in a year But the roster balancing system should try to get you back up to the average anyway.

so basically if you’re sick a lot, you potentially wont earn as much flight pay. Pretty industry standard I think.

this doesn’t affect basic salary.
