EMPLOYEE RECERTIFICATION
Section 1. An employee who is operationally
decertified for reasons other than an operational error/deviation and assigned
to a training and/or recertification program in accordance with FAA Order
7210.56 and FAA Order 3120.4 will be given written notice within five (5)
administrative workdays of the specific reasons for this action. An employee
shall only be restricted from working those operational positions for which
the decertification or restriction was imposed, unless the functions thereof
can be demonstrated to affect those of other positions.
Section 2. Upon request, the employee shall have an opportunity to
review the information used in making the determination to place him/her in a
training and/or recertification program, and to discuss the reasons for making
the determination with his/her immediate supervisor.
Section 3. When an employee is to be given remedial training, it shall
be accomplished in accordance with Article XX, Training and Career
Development, of this Agreement. If remedial training is the result of
decertification, the employee will be notified in writing, within five (5)
calendar days of the decertification of the specific deficiencies and the
skill level required for recertification on each position.
Section 4. If further action is necessary, performance deficiencies
will be addressed in accordance with Article
119, Performance of this
Agreement.
Section 5. If an employee is removed from operational duties due to an
operational error/deviation the provisions of FAA Order 7210.56, Return to
Operational Duty, shall apply.
In the event the employee�s first-line supervisor decides decertification
after an OE/OD is not warranted, the controller shall receive an
over-the-shoulder and, if successful, be returned to duty.
If an employee is decertified because of an operational error/deviation, a
remedial training plan shall be developed by the employee�s first-line
supervisor in accordance with FAA Order 3120.4 and this Agreement.
Remedial training, if applicable, shall normally begin within five (5)
administrative workdays of the causal event. The employee�s schedule shall not
normally be changed from his/her regularly assigned shifts until such time as
remedial training begins.
Section 6. Recertification may be accomplished by individual position
or by a single action covering multiple positions.
