TRB

Is being sexually harassed and an active EEO complaint enough to win hours back during a TRB?

Took this from another thread,

”The purpose of the TRB is to ensure the .4 was adhered to. it's not a jury that's going to decide whether or not you are capable of certifying.

If it were my career on the line, I would have a copy of the .4, local training order, my training plan, and all of my -25's in front of me right now.

look for any discrepancies where your supervisor may have missed things in your local training order or training plan. does it say you're required monthly training team meetings? a minimum amount of training hours per day or week? were there reoccurring problems identified in your -25's that were never addressed In skill enhancement training?

Did you have any extended absences in training, or personal problems that may have effected your performance? do you have a stack of training sheets that say things like "light traffic, no issues." Or "looks good in a headset"?

NATCA is going to have someone who will be doing this for you, but again - if it were me, I wouldn't trust my career to someone who may or may not be motivated to help.”

No. The trb should not be discussing that. They only address if training is executed according to the local and national order.

Might they discuss it? Maybe

I think they take training conditions into account. It’s worth bringing up

if you want to complain about your training conditions it’s best to make they statement before the TRB

As a TRB rep, I would absolutely want to know about the harassment and EEO complaint! One of the questions that you will be asked in the TRB interview would be "did you have any extenuating circumstances that affected your training"? This is when you let the TRB board know what happened.



Both the OS and the trainee have a responsibility to address extenuating circumstances.

Management was well aware

Well then, to answer your original question, the review board will take that into consideration along with any violations that they find. They will take all of that information and make a recommendation to the ATM. The ATM will then use the boards recommendation to help make a decision on continuation or termination of training.

It is important to emphasize that the review board ONLY make a recommendation, the ATM is who ultimately decides continuation or termination.

Lmao, yes

You’d have to have a really jacked up atm looking for trouble if he went against the board haha.

100% agree, just saying that they don't have to follow the recommendation

this is a lawsuit.

They'll probably highly recommend a new facility - not to stay where you're at.

OP after the trb

I disagree, if it’s for good reasoning I would love to see an ATM with the balls to do it. Usually NATCA and even the Agency send their better people to do these TRB’s but sometimes you get a 60+ year old support specialist from a level 5 up down who’s position was eliminated but they are grandfathered to work it until they retire, and they think they can dictate what a higher level facility does in a power trip, suggesting radical changes to their training program after the TRB.

That’s when the ATM needs to step in and smack the people down, but you have seen FAA management, it’s rare someone would do that.

Through the NEST? Or the EEO process?

I don’t know any of your situation, but I’d guess the FAA would offer similar level facilities to go to if your situation is legit and also on the nature of the harassment. I have zero context for your situation, but if it’s serious, I imagine they have avenues. Or you’d need to get a lawyer.

I don’t know the person or situation with detail. But I do know someone who was washing out and cited EEO but eventually was offered lower level facilities on the NEST.

Hey let’s wait until we are washing out to bring up harassment. Makes sense.

We were all trainees once, most of us were afraid of stepping on toes before we got certified.
