The covid crisis and schedule reduction has caused many pilots to become non-current. In the previous six weeks I have flown with numerous FOs who have not flown in more than 75 days. Two were current because their 9 month recurrent training counted as the 3 required landings in 90 days.The additional workload that this places on the other pilot due to increased awareness and vigilance is unsustainable. Landings in particular are mostly unsatisfactory and in one instance unsafe. I recommend that every pilot that has not made a landing in the actual aircraft in more than 75 days be required to fly with a line check airmen. The lack of proficiency is not the pilot's fault; but due to the current environment of reduced flight time.
Air carrier Captain reported that many of the first officers he flies with are not current; especially in the landing environment.
