I know someone who is going through family medical issues. He is not able to go to work at this time to take care of his wife, but he can not afford to take unpaid leave. Is there someone I can’t tell him to call. He doesn’t want to call the chief pilots office because he doesn’t want to tell someone that doesn’t need to know.

Who else would he call besides the Chief Pilot office? That’s what they are there for.

yeah that’s what I thought. Thanks

Is it even possible to get a paid Leave for a family medical issue?

Possibly. The other thought is that they don’t want to air personal information to anyone that they don’t have to at the company. They only want to inform those that are an absolute need to know

Just spitballing

If you're California based yes...not sure about Georgia.

that’s fine. You call your CPO and they’ll connect you with people who “need to know.” But you’re going to have to explain why you’re taking leave one way or another. The CPO isn’t going to ask detailed medical info, and you could refuse if they did

My friend asked me if I knew if he could get a paid leave. He also told me not to tell anyone what was going on with his wife. I’m probably going to say too much but it’s undiagnosed and he doesn’t feel comfortable leaving to go away on a trip.
