Plaintiff is a resident of and he is currently employed as an Air Traffic

Control Specialist by defendant in New York and was so employed at all times material herein. A written consent is appended to this complaint as Attachment A. The written consent form sets forth the plaintiff'name and home address. s 4. Additional persons who are plaintiffs in this action are also current or

former employees of the defendant employed as ATCS, TMC and Staff Specialists at various locations and they have given their written consent to be party plaintiffs in this action pursuant to 29 U.S.C. Section 216(b). Such written consents are appended to this complaint. These written consent forms set forth each plaintiff'name and home s address. 5. Each of the plaintiffs in this action is an "employee" within the meaning of

the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. Section 203(e)(1). 6. The defendant Government of the United States is, and at all material

times has been, a "public agency" and "employer" within the meaning of the FLSA, 29 U.S.C. Section 203(x) and Section 203(d). Defendant employs the plaintiffs and other employees in similar activities and has its principal place of business in Washington, D.C. FACTS 7. Section 7(a) of the FLSA (29 U.S.C. Section 207(a)) provides that an

employer shall compensate its employees at a rate not less than one and one-half times their regular rate for each hour employed in excess of 40 hours per week. Pursuant to this statutory provision, and at all times material herein, the plaintiffs and other employees similarly situated have been entitled to overtime pay for all hours at which

35

Case 1:07-cv-00272-ECH

Document 13

Page 36 of 47

they have been employed in excess of 40 hours per week. 8. At all or some of the times material herein, and since May 1, 2004, as well

as before, the plaintiffs have worked as ATCS, TMC and/or Staff Specialists. While working in these positions, the plaintiffs have worked hours in excess of forty (40) hours per week. 9. At all or some of the times material herein, and since May 1, 2004, as well

as before, when plaintiffs have worked as ATCS, TMC and/or Staff Specialists, they have received various types of pay in addition to their basic pay. Among other types of pay, plaintiffs who work in the United States and its territories outside the contiguous 48 states currently receive and have received cost of living allowances (COLA) of up to 25% of their basic pay. Plaintiffs working in the contiguous 48 states currently receive and have received locality pay calculated at the rates set forth under the Federal Employee Pay Comparability Act, 5 U.S.C. §§ 5301, 5304. Plaintiffs have also received Organizational Success Increases (OSI) and Superior Contributions Increases (SCI), which have been paid both as additions to their biweekly pay and in lump sums covering time periods greater than a pay period. Further, certain plaintiffs who have worked at undesirable locations currently receive or have received in the past payments of up to 10% of their basic pay as Controller Incentive Pay (CIP). 10. At all times material herein, and since May 1, 2004, as well as before,

when plaintiffs have worked as ATCS, TMC and/or Staff Specialists, plaintiffs have, on occasion, received compensatory time as payment for working in excess of 40 hours a week. Such compensatory time has been paid at the rate of one hour of compensatory time for each hour of overtime worked or in the form of " credit hours"which is just ,

36

Case 1:07-cv-00272-ECH

Page 37 of 47

another form of compensatory time paid at the rate of one hour per one hour of overtime work. 11. At all times material herein, the defendant has suffered or permitted

plaintiffs to work before and after the official starting times of their shifts without compensating plaintiffs with compensation for such work time. For at least some of these instances, and at the larger air traffic facilities at which plaintiffs work, a " CRUART" machine is used to record work time. Although the CRU-ART machine permits the machine to be manipulated to reflect a time other than the actual clock in time for the employee, it is plaintiffs' understanding that computerized records exist that reflect the actual work time. 12. At all times material herein, defendant has conducted a system by which

the work schedules and vacation dates of plaintiffs and other ATCS are determined pursuant to a bidding process, with those ATCS with the most seniority governing the order in which the process is conducted. At all times material, and in particular within the past two years, defendant has conducted the schedule and vacation leave bidding process for plaintiffs during time periods in which plaintiffs are " off-duty" (time periods defendant does not schedule plaintiffs to be on-duty), such as conducting this process by telephone while plaintiffs are at home or at the facility after plaintiffs have been clocked out. When defendant has conducted the schedule and vacation leave bidding while plaintiffs are " off-duty," defendant has not provided plaintiffs with any compensation for this work time.

FAILURE TO PROPERLY CALCULATE THE FLSA REGULAR RATE 13. Plaintiffs incorporate by reference paragraphs 1 through 12 in their entirety

and restate them herein. 14. Section 7(a) of the FLSA, 29 U.S.C. § 207(a), provides that overtime shall

be paid to employees for work hours in excess of forty (40) hours per week at the rate of one and one-half times an employee'" s regular rate of pay." all times material herein, At during the work weeks in which plaintiffs have worked in excess of forty (40) hours per week, defendant United States has failed to properly calculate the " regular rate of pay" used to calculate FLSA overtime pay. Defendant has violated the FLSA by: a. Failing to use the proper divisor for computing the regular rate for COLA by dividing COLA by all hours worked rather than by plaintiffs work hours used for plaintiffs' basic pay ­i.e., 40 hours per week; b. Failing to include lump sum OSI and SCI payments in the regular rate of pay at which FLSA overtime is paid; c. Miscalculating the regular rate of pay for those plaintiffs who receive CIP by dividing the CIP received by all hours worked rather than 40 hours; and d. On those occasions in which compensatory time, including credit hours, is cashed out, failing to include all forms of renumeration received by an employee in the rate at which the compensatory time (and credit hours) is cashed out. 15. By failing to properly calculate the regular rate of pay for plaintiffs and

other employees similarly situated as required under law, the defendant has violated,

and is continuing to violate in a willful and intentional manner, the provisions of the FLSA. As a consequence, at all times material herein, the plaintiffs have been unlawfully deprived of overtime compensation and other relief for the maximum statutory period allowed under federal law. 16. As a result of the defendant's willful and purposeful violations of the FLSA,

there have become due and owing to the plaintiffs an amount that has not yet been precisely determined. The employment and work records for the plaintiffs are in the exclusive possession, custody and control of defendant and its public agencies and the plaintiffs are unable to state at this time the exact amount owing to them. Defendant and its public agencies are under a duty imposed by the Government Accounting Office retention schedule, the FLSA (29 U.S.C. §211 (c)) and various statutory and regulatory provisions to maintain and preserve payroll and other employment records with respect to the plaintiffs and other employees similarly situated from which the amount of defendant's liability can be ascertained. 17. Pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 216(b), plaintiffs are entitled to recover liquidated

damages in an amount equal to their back pay damages for the Defendant'failure to s pay overtime compensation. 18. Pursuant to the Back Pay Act, 5 U.S.C. § 5596, plaintiffs are entitled to

recover interest on their back pay damages for the defendant'failure to pay them s overtime compensation. 19. Plaintiffs are entitled to recover attorneys' fees and costs under 29 U.S.C.

§ 216(b), the Back Pay Act, 5 U.S.C. § 5596 as well as other applicable laws and regulations.

COUNT II IMPROPER PAYMENT OF COMPENSATORY TIME 20. Plaintiffs incorporate by reference paragraphs 1 through 12 in their entirety

and restate them herein. 21. Section 7(a) of the FLSA, 29 U.S.C. § 207(a), provides that overtime shall

be paid to employees for work hours in excess of forty (40) hours per week at the rate of one and one-half times an employee'" s regular rate of pay." all times material herein, At during the work weeks in which plaintiffs have worked in excess of forty (40) hours per week, defendant United States has violated the FLSA by paying plaintiffs in the form of compensatory time or " credit hours" the rate of one hour for each hour of overtime at hour worked. Payment of compensatory time or credit hours as compensation for FLSA overtime hours is only permitted for employees to whom 5 U.S.C. § 5543 applies. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. § 40122(f)(2), the pay provisions of Title 5 do not apply to the plaintiffs. Thus, at all times material herein, defendant has violated, and continues to violate the premium overtime pay provisions of section 7(a) of the FLSA by failing to pay plaintiffs at the time and one-half rate for each overtime hour worked and, by failing to pay plaintiffs in cash. 22. By failing to pay plaintiffs at the rate of one and one half times their regular

rate of pay for each overtime hour worked and by compensating plaintiffs in compensatory time and/or credit hours rather than cash for each overtime hour worked, defendant has violated the FLSA with respect to plaintiffs and other employees similarly situated, and is continuing to violate in a willful and intentional manner, the provisions of the FLSA. As a consequence, at all times material herein, the plaintiffs have been

unlawfully deprived of overtime compensation and other relief for the maximum statutory period allowed under federal law. 23. As a result of the defendant's willful and purposeful violations of the FLSA,

there have become due and owing to the plaintiffs an amount that has not yet been precisely determined. The employment and work records for the plaintiffs are in the exclusive possession, custody and control of defendant and its public agencies and the plaintiffs are unable to state at this time the exact amount owing to them. Defendant and its public agencies are under a duty imposed by the Government Accounting Office retention schedule, the FLSA (29 U.S.C. §211 (c)) and various statutory and regulatory provisions to maintain and preserve payroll and other employment records with respect to the plaintiffs and other employees similarly situated from which the amount of defendant's liability can be ascertained. 24. Pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 216(b), plaintiffs are entitled to recover liquidated

damages in an amount equal to their back pay damages for the Defendant'failure to s pay overtime compensation. 25. Pursuant to the Back Pay Act, 5 U.S.C. § 5596, plaintiffs are entitled to

recover interest on their back pay damages for the defendant'failure to pay them s overtime compensation. 26. Plaintiffs are entitled to recover attorneys' fees and costs under 29 U.S.C.

§ 216(b), the Back Pay Act, 5 U.S.C. § 5596 as well as other applicable laws and regulations. COUNT III FAILURE TO COMPENSATE PLAINTIFFS FOR PRE-SHIFT AND POST-SHIFT WORK ACTIVITIES

207(a), provide that overtime shall be paid to employees for all hours an employee is suffered or permitted to work in excess of forty (40) hours per week at the rate of one and one-half times an employee'" s regular rate of pay."At all times material herein, plaintiffs have been suffered or permitted to perform work activities, without compensation, before their official scheduled starting times for work and after their official starting times for work. Thus, at all times material herein, defendant has violated, and continues to violate the premium overtime pay provisions of section 7(a) of the FLSA by failing to pay plaintiffs for all hours worked. 29. By failing to pay plaintiffs at the rate of one and one half times their regular

rate of pay for each overtime hour worked, defendant has violated the FLSA with respect to plaintiffs and other employees similarly situated, and is continuing to violate in a willful and intentional manner, the provisions of the FLSA.

§ 216(b), the Back Pay Act, 5 U.S.C. § 5596 as well as other applicable laws and regulations. COUNT IV FAILURE TO COMPENSATE PLAINTIFFS FOR TIME SPENT OFF DUTY BIDDING ON WORK AND LEAVE SCHEDULES 34. Plaintiffs incorporate by reference paragraphs 1 through 12 in their entirety

and restate them herein. 35. Section 3(g) and Section 7(a) of the FLSA, 29 U.S.C. §§ 203(g) and

207(a), provide that overtime shall be paid to employees for all hours an employee is suffered or permitted to work in excess of forty (40) hours per week at the rate of one and one-half times an employee'" s regular rate of pay."At all times material herein, plaintiffs have been suffered or permitted to perform work activities off duty, while at

Specifically, defendant and its supervisors have caused plaintiffs to engage in bidding on their work and vacation leave schedules while off-duty. At all times material herein, defendant' s failure to compensate plaintiffs for such work time violates and continues to violate the premium overtime pay provisions of section 7(a) of the FLSA by failing to pay plaintiffs for all hours worked. 36. By failing to compensate plaintiffs and other employees who are similarly

situated for time spent bidding on work schedules and vacation leave, defendant has failed to compensate plaintiffs and other employees similarly situated at the rate of one and one half times their regular rate of pay for each overtime hour worked and defendant has violated and is continuing to violate in a willful and intentional manner, the provisions of the FLSA.
