To verify that leave credited to such an employee is used for treating a service-connected disability, the employee shall certify to FAA Human Resource Management that the employee used that leave for purposes of being furnished treatment for that disability by a health care provider.

AI Summary

This bill, the Federal Aviation Administration Veteran Transition Improvement Act of 2016, amends federal civil service requirements to specifically include leave for disabled armed forces veterans within the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) personnel management system. A key provision requires these employees to certify to the FAA Human Resource Management that any leave taken for a service-connected disability was actually used for treatment by a healthcare provider, ensuring accountability for this specific type of leave.
