| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY #1: Collective Bargaining: ALPA is the collective bargaining agent for over 60,000 airline pilots and professional flight engineers who make up 34 pilot groups in the United States and Canada. In addition to negotiating labor contracts, it processes grievances, arbitrations, and other contract administration-related activities. The year 2018 was a busy period for collective bargaining, as the association was engaged in negotiations to amend, create, or implement collective bargaining agreements at several ALPA carriers. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B | PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY #2: Government Affairs: As the voice of professional airline pilots, the association represents a pilot partisan agenda to Congress and to many administrative agencies, including the Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, Department of State, Department of Homeland Security and Transportation Security Administration. Key legislative issues for pilots in 2018 included the enforcement of Open Skies agreements and stopping flag of convenience operations in aviation; promoting safety in the reauthorization of the Federal Aviation Administration by advocating for hazardous materials safety when shipped by air, secondary cockpit barriers, maintaining safety regulations, and safe integration of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS); and funding for TSA security programs such as the Federal Flight Deck Officer program. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4C | PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY #3: Aviation Safety: ALPA maintains a network of hundreds of pilot volunteers, supported by approximately two dozen staff professionals, organized into an extensive structure of local and national committees. Key safety issues in 2018 included: pilot fatigue, pilot training and qualification, airport and runway safety, various improvements to aviation security and pilot and passenger screening, safety management systems, and the results of key accident investigations. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D | PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY #4: Publications: The union's magazine, Air Line Pilot, is published 10 times per year with a circulation of about 87,000 copies, mostly to members and retired pilots. Its content is a mixture of union news, industry trends, and technical safety and security-related information. Most of ALPA's 34 pilot groups including their individual local councils, publish and distribute both paper and e-mail newsletters with news and information of interest to their pilots. The Association occasionally publishes specialized newsletters on matters of urgent interest and also maintains an extensive website that carries news, announcements, and general information on both publically accessible homepage and a "member only" portion of the website. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 4 | SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO GOVERNING DOCUMENTS: On September 18, 2018 the Constitution and Bylaws were updated to reflect the Board of Directors changes to Article III, Local Councils and Local Executive Councils, Section 9 - Election Groups. On October 18, 2018 the Constitution and Bylaws were updated to reflect the Board of Directors changes to Article XX (Crew Complement). |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 6 | MEMBERS: ALPA REPRESENTS OVER 60,000 PILOT MEMBERS. ALPA HAS ONLY ONE CATEGORY OF ACTIVE MEMBERS. ALPA ALSO COLLECTS DUES FROM EXECUTIVE INACTIVE MEMBERS (AT A REDUCED RATE) AND "NON-MEMBERS" (AT ANOTHER REDUCED RATE). EXECUTIVE INACTIVE MEMBERS ARE ENTITLED TO ALL OF THE RIGHTS AND BENEFITS OF ACTIVE MEMBERS EXCEPT THEY MAY NOT VOTE, ASSUME OR HOLD ELECTIVE OR APPOINTIVE OFFICE (INCLUDING COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS), ATTEND MEETINGS OR BE INCLUDED ON THE ACTIVE MEMBER MAILING LIST. "NON-MEMBERS" ARE NOT MEMBERS OF ALPA WHO ARE NEVERTHELESS COMPELLED TO PAY UNION DUES OR FEES UNDER AN AGENCY SHOP AGREEMENT. NON-MEMBERS ARE ENTITLED TO A PRO RATA ADJUSTMENT FOR ANY EXPENSES THAT ARE NOT GERMANE. NON-MEMBERS ARE NOT ENTITLED TO ANY BENEFITS OF ALPA MEMBERSHIP. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7A | MEMBERS WHO MAY ELECT: ALPA'S HIGHEST GOVERNING BODY IS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ARE DIRECTLY ELECTED FROM LOCAL COUNCILS BY THE ACTIVE AND EXECUTIVE ACTIVE MEMBERS ASSIGNED TO THOSE LOCAL COUNCILS. THE MEMBERS OF OTHER ALPA GOVERNING BODIES - ALL OF WHICH ARE SUBSIDIARY TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS - ARE ELECTED BY THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B | FORM 990 REVIEW PROCESS: THE ORGANIZATION ENGAGES WITH AN INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED ACCOUNTING FIRM TO PREPARE AND REVIEW THE ORGANIZATION'S FORM 990 BASED ON INFORMATION PROVIDED BY ALPA'S ACCOUNTING STAFF.

| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C | CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY: (1) ALPA'S CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY IS REVIEWED WITH EMPLOYEES, A WRITTEN COPY IS INCLUDED IN EACH EMPLOYEE NEW HIRE KIT, A COPY IS INCLUDED IN THE EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK, AND THE POLICY IS POSTED ON THE EMPLOYEE STAFF CENTER WEBSITE. THE POLICY PROVIDES EXAMPLES OF SOME OF THE RELATIONSHIPS THAT SHOULD BE AVOIDED. THE POLICY REQUIRES THAT ALL EMPLOYEES AVOID CONFLICTS BETWEEN THEIR PERSONAL INTEREST AND THE MEMBERS OF, OR PERSONS REPRESENTED BY, ALPA OR THE INTEREST OF ALPA IN DEALING WITH EMPLOYERS OR WITH SUPPLIERS, CUSTOMERS, AND ALL OTHER ORGANIZATIONS OR INDIVIDUALS SEEKING TO DO BUSINESS WITH ALPA. IF A CONFLICT IS REPORTED, DISCOVERED, OR SUSPECTED, IT IS ADDRESSED FIRST BY THE EMPLOYEE'S SUPERVISOR AND, IF NECESSARY, BY THE HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT, AND IN EITHER CASE, APPROPRIATE MEASURES ARE TAKEN, WHICH CAN INCLUDE TERMINATION FOR VIOLATION OF THE POLICY. (2) IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL LABOR LAWS, ALPA IS GOVERNED BY OFFICERS ELECTED FROM AMONG THE MEMBERSHIP. ACCORDINGLY, DECISIONS MADE BY ALPA'S GOVERNING BODIES NECESSARILY AFFECT THE OFFICERS WHO MAKE UP THOSE GOVERNING BODIES, JUST AS THOSE DECISIONS AFFECT THE UNION MEMBERS AS A WHOLE. HOWEVER, SECTION 501(A) OF THE LABOR-MANAGEMENT REPORTING AND DISCLOSURE ACT (LMRDA), 29 U.S.C. 501(A), STATES THAT OFFICERS AND OTHER UNION REPRESENTATIVES "OCCUPY POSITIONS OF TRUST" WITH RESPECT TO THE UNION AND SO THAT "IT IS, THEREFORE, THE DUTY OF EACH SUCH PERSON, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE SPECIAL PROBLEMS AND FUNCTIONS OF A LABOR ORGANIZATION, TO HOLD ITS MONEY AND PROPERTY SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS MEMBERS AND TO MANAGE, INVEST, AND EXPEND THE SAME IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS CONSTITUTION AND BYLAWS AND ANY RESOLUTIONS OF THE GOVERNING BODIES ADOPTED THEREUNDER, TO REFRAIN FROM DEALING WITH SUCH ORGANIZATION AS AN ADVERSE PARTY OR IN BEHALF OF AN ADVERSE PARTY IN ANY MATTER CONNECTED WITH HIS DUTIES AND FROM HOLDING OR ACQUIRING ANY PECUNIARY OR PERSONAL INTEREST WHICH CONFLICTS WITH THE INTEREST OF SUCH ORGANIZATION, AND TO ACCOUNT TO THE ORGANIZATION FOR ANY PROFIT RECEIVED BY HIM IN WHATEVER CAPACITY IN CONNECTION WITH TRANSACTIONS CONDUCTED BY HIM OR UNDER HIS DIRECTION ON BEHALF OF THE ORGANIZATION." THE RESPONSIBILITIES IMPOSED BY LMRDA SECTION 501(A) MAY BE ENFORCED BY UNION MEMBERS THROUGH SUITS IN FEDERAL COURTS, OR BY THE SECRETARY OF LABOR, AND THOSE RESPONSIBILITIES GOVERN THE UNION'S ACTIONS. |
