Benefits

The past six months we have had some issues occur with fmlasource. According to CFR825.308, it is allowed that Frontier request recertification after six months for a continuous health condition after a call out. 

There were some flight attendants that fmlasource sent them  recertification paperwork and the LOA department was made aware. The LOA department then investigated and approved recertification without any explanation. 

We are now seeing theses same flight attendants now being asked again to recertify. Because there was no paperwork turned in for the first request, it is allowed by the government to ask again in less than six months. 

If you’re asked to re-certify and had out of pocket expenses because of this, please let us know. 

Also remember, your IFMLA covers two doctor visits per year and if you need to take a day off to see your doctor to have the recertification done, you may use one of those days available to you.
