					</span>Ms. Diehl testified that the special, additional or extra projects she was referring to being done by Awnclean’s biweekly employees through DTZ at the TCC fell under this section of the subcontract. (Tr. 269-75, 285, 289-90, 299-300, 331-33; Exs. 30, at 3, ¶ 6, L). She said Awnclean’s bi-weekly employees who performed these large one-to-four-day projects were always supervised by Awnclean’s crew chiefs, and not C&W management. She further stated that none of these projects involved pressure washing the docks, or were near water. (Tr. 290-92).</p>

					</span>Ms. Diehl testified that in practice, DTZ and Awnclean did not follow paragraph 11 of the contract. She said, “the people on our [Awnclean’s weekly] payroll were essentially DTZ employees. They did everything that their people told them to do. They [DTZ] set the schedules.” (Tr. 118-27, 286; Ex. 20). Ms. Diehl testified “that what was put on that contract [in this regard] was not what was put in practice per their [DTZ’s] request and their [DTZ’s] directions.” (Tr. 235). </p>

And I – you’re correct that it does say this in the contract. What we were told was, we [DTZ] will take care of it.” (Tr. 201-02).</p>

					</span>Ms. Diehl testified that workers at TCC were not actually paid these hourly wages; these were billable hourly rates paid to Awnclean by DTZ. (Tr. 166-67).

By email dated June 12, 2013, Ms. Harris told Paul Diehl to review Mr. Slaughter’s performance on August 1, 2013 “and give [him a] raise to 10.00 if doing acceptable job.” (Ex. 14, at 3). </p>

					</span>OSHA’s Fatality/Catastrophe Report’s “Preliminary Description (Hazard Description and Location” stated: “Johnny Norton, 53 was pressure washing the docks at the Tampa Bay Convention Center when his pressure washer fell on top of him and he fell off the dock being pinned by the pressure washer under the water.” (Ex. U, at 3). The Court finds this to be inaccurate as the video shows that only the rotary scrubber fell into the water and it was retrieved from the water and returned atop the dock two minutes after Mr. Norton fell into the water.

					</span>Ms. Diehl signed OSHA’s Form 301 “Injury and Illness Incident Report” for 2017 that indicated Mr. Norton was an Awnclean employee who drowned at 11:00 a.m., May 15, 2017 while “pressure cleaning the dock at the Convention Center.” It further stated Mr. Norton “stepped backward and fell in the water and never came up.” (Tr. 264-65; Ex. G, at 14; SF 6, 11, 13). OSHA’s Form 300 “Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses” for 2015 reported injuries to three Awnclean employees, including Ralph Few, that occurred at the TCC. Ms. Diehl stated she never met the three injured workers. She said Respondent notified Awnclean of the injuries. (Tr. 263-64, 298-99; Ex. G, at 4). The OSHA Form 300A “Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses” for 2016 stated that the average number of employees for 2016 was “22” with total hours worked at 32,000 and for 2017 stated that the average number of employees for 2017 was “25” with total hours worked at 43,750. (Ex. G, at 10, 13). The OSHA Form 300A and Payroll Summary for 2016 shows that the Awnclean weekly paid workers at the TCC completed 24,384.03 hours (or 76%) of the 32,000 total hours performed by all workers on Awnclean’s payroll in 2016. (Exs. G-H, 36). The Court finds that at least one-half of the average number of 22 employees at Awnclean for 2016 worked at the TCC and were on Awnclean’s weekly payroll. (Exs. G-H, 36). </p>

					</span>The weekly schedule showed Mr. Norton assigned to the Exterior: “Water pressure and river walk” for Monday, May 15, 2017. (Ex. 20, at 1).

The Court finds that the Awnclean Payroll Summary for 2017 shows that, with the very limited exception of Ms. Lee, none of the other six workers served as a supervisor in 2017. Ms. Lee was paid the same hourly wage rate of $8.25 as her six other colleagues for 1,654.7 hours, and the supervisor wage rate of $10 for only 7.75 hours in 2017.

					</span>Respondent’s response to Request for Admission No. 4 states, “Respondent admits that Marvin Walker was a supervisor for C&W Services at the Tampa Convention Center and was employed by C&W on May 15, 2017.” (Ex. 31, at 4-5). Respondent also identified Mr. Walker as “Supervisor of Grounds” in its Answer to Interrogatory No. 12 verified by Ms. Diaz on June 20, 2018. (Tr. 599; Ex. 32, at 12, 20). Ms. Alberti also told the CO on June 5, 2017 that Mr. Norton worked under her supervision for about a year. She further said Mr. Norton was supervised by Mr. Walker, who reported to Mr. Sheehan. (Tr. 378-82; Exs. 24, Y, at 6). Nonetheless, Respondent asserts in its post hearing brief that “Mr. Marvin Walker was not a supervisor for C&W Services.” (Resp’t Post Hr’g. Br., at 16, ¶ 54). The Court finds Ms. Diaz’s trial testimony that Mr. Walker was not a supervisor to not be credible. (Tr. 596-97). The Court further rejects Respondent’s position and finds that Mr. Walker was a C&W supervisor who supervised Mr. Norton on and before May 15, 2017. (Tr. 378-82, 599, Exs. 24, 31-32, Y, at 6). </p>
