This week Local Council leadership and volunteers arrived in Chicago to attend the annual Schedule Integrity Training, facilitated by the MEC Central Scheduling Committee (CSC).

The two-day training was developed to improve data collection and engage additional local council participation to improve the quality of life for Flight Attendants.

Topics included variable staffing, Reserve legalities, Reserve utilization, Fatigue Risk Management Program (FRMP) as it relates to pairing construction, pairing integrity (high value turns, long sit times, and minimum layovers) drafting, understaffing, moved flying, open time, analyzing company reports, language qualified flying, International Purser flying, and scheduling coordination with other committees.

Upon completion of the training, volunteers will bring their skill sets back to their Local Councils to continue the work of CSC.

Thank you to all the attendees who have taken time away from their personal lives to become subject matter experts. If you are interested in becoming a part of a local committee, contact your Local Council leadership to get involved today!
