  • MEC/BOD - PHX / October 12 -19

  • BOS LEC Representatives - Contact Information

Dear Members,

PROVIDING A STATEMENT TO THE COMPANY

Just a reminder to flight attendants: when you are involved in an incident that would require a written statement, you have 24 hours in which to provide this statement to the company. You do not have to discuss the situation verbally at the time of the incident and it is recommended that you do not and that you contact a union representative immediately. If a union representative is not available at that moment advise the company, FAA whomever, that you would be happy to comply but want your union representative present.

When an incident occurs it is upsetting and very natural for one to be expressive and offer explanations, if this could just serve as a reminder to take a deep breath and step back from the incident before verbalizing anything.

A flight attendant who is required to meet with a Company representative shall be entitled to be accompanied by his/her union elected representative or another flight attendant, if the flight attendant desires. Section 24 F 8

Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this information, please contact the local office.
