Exhibit 3 offered into evidence. I admit them as part of Exhibit 3. I admitted the Petitioners’ appeal to DALA as Exhibit 14. Exhibit 3 is a compact disc with the service logs for Terminals A and C. Exhibits 12 and 13 are compact discs with more than 2 years of the Petitioners’ complete payroll records. I informed the Petitioners that DALA had neither the time nor resources to sift through those records, and they agreed to submit hard copies of the relevant employees’ service logs, payroll records and other relevant information to DALA. The Petitioners presented 6 witnesses: Dominic Patti, Director of Operations; Nelson Reyes, Operations Manager for Terminal C; Charlotte Morales, Assistant Manager, Terminal A; Jensy Diaz, Night Supervisor, Terminal A; Giovanni Martinez, Night Manager, Terminal A; and Sarah Colon, Office Manager, Terminal C. The Respondent presented 19 witnesses: Ready Jet current and former employees Bethania Rodriguez, Edwin Morales, Grisselle Torres Ramos, Felix Calderon Santana, Miguel Alberto, Luis Colon, Pedro De Jesus, Michael Ventura, Jackson Calderon, Yasandri Castro, Angel Rivera, Steven Rosario, Angel Adames, Starling Perez, Francisco Valdez, Jesus Batista, Carlos Mariano and Ana Maria Verganza and Inspector Christina Lopez of the OAG, Fair Labor and Business Practice Division. Sarah Nolan Aguilar provided interpretation services. The hearing was digitally recorded. The parties submitted their post hearing briefs to DALA on March 25, 2016. The Petitioners’ brief included an analysis of selected dates for service logs in Terminals A and C. The administrative record then closed. FINDINGS OF FACT
Based upon the testimony and documents presented at the hearing, I hereby render the following findings of fact: The Petitioner, D. Richard Castellano is the president of Ready Jet, Inc., a foreign corporation incorporated in the state of Delaware on September 27, 2007. (Exhibit 5.) Ready Jet provides aircraft cleaning services at Logan International Airport (Logan) for Delta Airlines in Terminal A and JetBlue Airlines in Terminal C. Ready Jet also performs cleaning services for Alaska Airlines. (Exhibit 1.) Ready Jet classified the aircraft cleanings as TURNs or RONs. TURNs were airplanes that arrived at Logan in the early morning hours, were cleaned and departed shortly with new passengers. RONs were airplanes that remained at Logan overnight and were given a thorough cleaning by Ready Jet’s overnight cleaning crew. (Testimony of Patti.) Ready Jet work was divided among three groups: crew lead, crew supervisor, and the general manager. The crew lead ran the crew, took the crew onto the aircraft and maintained quality standards. The crew supervisor was responsible for assigning crew leads, performing service audits and following the airlines’ schedules. At least one crew supervisor worked during the day, and two or three crew supervisors worked the overnight shift. (Testimony of Patti.) The overnight crew comprised three teams of eight or nine employees headed by a crew lead. Each overnight crew included a two-man water/lavatory team: one person responsible for adding water to the plane, the other responsible for lavatory waste and disinfection. To minimize the risk of cross-contamination, the lavatory team was not allowed to interact with other crew members. The lavatory team had to remain near the lavatory truck at all times to facilitate a quick response when planes arrived. (Testimony of Patti; Testimony of Perez.)
