Unsafe rostering practices: ASR or not?
The Canadian company I work for keeps rostering early flights, followed by 17 hours rest then a night flight (14 hour duties). These are perfectly legal within the archaic Canadian FTL's, but I feel that it is unfeasible to rest sufficiently within that short space of time and still be refreshed enough to operate the red-eye flight. Is it worth bunging ASRs in every time they make me do this? I've got 3 this month alone...

If the rostering resulted in fatigue then I would ASR the fatigue and put the rostering as a contributing factor. If you wanted to address the rostering only then the ASR is probabley not the correct avenue. Maybe write to your regulator?
