The lack of clear disclosure added a new layer of panic for workers whose union organizing efforts the airline is battling.
A Delta Air Lines executive directed pilots who test positive for the coronavirus withhold the diagnosis from flight attendants and other colleagues, according to video of an internal discussion among leaders of the pilots’ union.
But on Friday, the company sent pilots updated guidelines for informing employees when a co-worker tests positive for the virus. “In some instances, depending on the clinical investigation, Delta may notify employees of the need to self-quarantine,” Morgan Durrant, a Delta spokesman, said by email. On Tuesday, national representatives at the ALPA sent a letter to the Federal Aviation Administration complaining that some carriers are not following the CDC’s guidance to inform employees if they’ve been exposed to the novel coronavirus,By Friday, the number of Delta pilots who tested positive for COVID-19 rose to 48, the union said on its website, up from 32 the day before.
