Airlink's new duty policy
I would like to QUOTE the new policy regarding Off Days. "5.1 Crew scheduled "Day Off" during any roster period will not be required to complete active duty on that day nor can the scheduled roster be changed from Day Off to active duty other than what is stipulated in 4.2. (4.2 Crew are not to plan any private appointments on a scheduled duty day.) 5.2 Crew scheduled Day Off can be changed to a Duty Day if it is not a legal Off Day by the Roster Office or JNB Operations, PROVIDED THAT THE CREW MEMBER AGREES TO ASSIST THE COMPANY IN THIS CHANGE. Alternative Day Off will be given to the Crew by the Roster Office. 5.3 Crew WILLING to fly on his/her off day will be compensated with double S&T." Which part of this exactly do you not understand? It makes perfect sense NOT to plan private events on a duty day, considering the possiblilty of delays. As to being forced to work on an Off Day, does it not CLEARLY state in 5.2 "provided that the crew member agrees to assist the company"? Your level of education has evidently left you unequipped with the rudiments of comprehension. Perhaps you should rather be working in someone's garden, because if you cannot grasp the basics I fear for the lives of your passengers.
