2.79 An attachment to Captain Jensen’s letter stated:
A large number of Flight Attendants have taken advantage of Ansett's liberal policy of granting exemptions from crewing the BAe l46 without having to go through any workers' compensation system. While collection and analysis of data was still being completed, Ansett granted exemptions to a number of Flight Attendants in recognition of their concerns for their health- …
Around half of the exemptions were granted upon receipt of a medical certificate citing a Flight Attendant’s inability to crew a BAe l46. These certificates are, in some cases, up to two years old and have not been reissued. On no occasion has an issuing doctor sought any information from Ansett Australia before providing a certificate.
The remaining exemptions were granted to Flight Attendants who were pregnant or attempting to conceive. Again, while no evidence suggested BAe l46 cabin air presented a risk to them or their unborn children, exemptions were granted purely in recognition of their concerns.
These exemptions relate to the BAe l46 only and the Flight Attendants involved remain on duty on all other aircraft types. Only two of Ansett's 2,000 Flight Attendants claim they are unable, for medical reasons, to crew any aircraft. 76
2.80 In further evidence to the inquiry Captain Jensen advised:
Whilst we were going through the process of collecting and analysing data we exempted a number of individuals from crewing the BAe146 in recognition of concerns that they had for their health. These exemptions

were granted, although there was no evidence of pathology or disease. Again, as far as I am aware, Ansett is the only airline to have done this. … We are moving to cease the special exemption applying to the BAe146 and to commence a graduated and fully supported return to work program. Of course, all occupational, medical and workplace health and safety support, including access to workers compensation schemes, will continue unchanged.77
2.81 However, in view of evidence considered by the Committee, including Ansett flight attendants, the Committee remains concerned at health problems allegedly occurring as a result of exposure to fumes on BAe 146, particularly as the majority of this group have medical evidence to support their claims.78
2.82 At a public hearing on 1 February 2000 in Sydney, a medical professional, Dr Mark Donohoe, commented on Ansett’s approach to his stance following his treatment of a number of Ansett air crew:
… in this particular issue of the BAe 146, there are political and commercial interests that have clouded the nature of inquiring into medical and health problems and into safety issues of the jet. Back in 1998 when I was first contacted by the Chief Medical Officer of Ansett and asked to a meeting, it was the first and only time that I can recall in dealing with employees of a company that a medical officer had made an attempt to get me to change my views on the health of patients that I had seen. At the time I felt there was a threat - an implied threat more than a direct threat -that it would be in my interests to withdraw statements that I had made about safety on the jets and the health of the people I had seen who had been flying on those jets.
