5.12.23 – APFA BOS Base Brief – Massachusetts Sick Coding

Massachusetts Sick Coding

Friday, May 12, 2023

It has been brought to our attention that Flight Attendants may have incorrect sick call coding if they are using Massachusetts Sick but do not have enough sick time to cover the full duration of the sequence. If a Boston-based Flight Attendant calls out for a sequence utilizing Massachusetts Sick and does not have enough sick time to cover the entire sequence, the proper coding is MP (Massachusetts State Sick Paid) for the paid portion and MU (Massachusetts State Sick Unpaid) for the unpaid portion.

If your sequence is coded as MP followed by US (unpaid sick), this is incorrect and a Flight Attendant could be attributed attendance points for the unpaid portion. Please immediately email any examples to us. Please include your HI10, HI10M, HI1 (for the affected month) and a screenshot of your MyView showing any attendance points given or banked points taken away. We will take the necessary steps to have this corrected.

In Solidarity,
