90STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE

94Whether Respondent engaged in discriminatory employment

100practices or reta liated against Petitioner, in violation of the

110Florida Civil Rights Act (FCRA), as alleged in the Petition for

121Relief ; and , if so, the appropriate penalty.

128PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

130On February 13, 2018, Petitioner Lucinda Hawkins (Hawkins)

138filed a Complaint w ith the Florida Commission on Human Relations

149(FCHR), alleging that Respondent Allied Universal Security

156Services (Allied Universal) , retaliated against her when it

164reduced her pay, issued her written discipline, and did not

174provide her with Ðhurricane rel iefÑ pay. Hawkins also alleged

184that Allied Universal further retaliated against her when

192HawkinsÓs supervisor called the desk phone at HawkinsÓs worksite,

201and when her supervisor asked her to complete Allied Universal

211forms and documents.

214The FCHR investi gated HawkinsÓs claims, and, on August 2,

2242018, issued a Determination stating that no reasonable cause

233existed to believe that an unlawful practice had occurred.

242Thereafter, on October 5, 2018, Hawkins filed a Petition for

252Relief, alleging as follows:

256Th e CommissionÓs determination does not

262consider the testimony of witnesses and other

269pertinent information and documentation which

274shows there is a basis for this complaint.

282I have been wrongfully denied wages and work

290hours during the time of my illness, which I

299have medical reports to clearly document my

306circumstances. I have witnesses to attest

312that I worked in a very hostile work

320environment where I was harassed,

325intimidated, threatened, and retaliated

329against during the time when I was under the

338do ct orÓs care and given doctorÓs [o] rders

347regarding my work hours and other activities.

354My evidence, including the testimony of

360witness [sic] will prove that I am a very

369dependable and responsible security officer

374when I am performing my duties. I am well -

384li ked and well - respected at my post. Even

394the highest level of management at the agency

402where I am assigned has given high praise and

411compliments regarding my service. However,

416despite the exemplary performance and high

422quality of personality I demonstrate d while

429at work, I continued to face hostility,

436especially during my illness. This has

442caused me pain and suffering which I feel

450should be properly addressed though my

456efforts of filing this complaint with the

463Florida Commission on Human Relations

468Petitio n for Relief.

472The FCHR transmitted the Petition for Relief to the Division on

483October 5, 2018.

486Prior to the final hearing, Allied Universal filed a motion

496to dismiss, contending that HawkinsÓs failed to timely file her

506Petition for Relief within the 35 - day time period required under

518section 760.011(7), Florida Statutes (2018). Allied Universal

525argued that FCHR issued its ÐNotice of Determination: No

534Reasonable CauseÑ on August 2, 2018 (FCHR Notice), and Hawkins

544waited until October 5, 2018, to file her Petition for Relief,

555some 64 days after FCHRÓs determination. At the final hearing,

565the undersigned noted that one of the documents that FCHR

575transmitted to the Division was a letter, dated

583September 18, 2018, from the United States Postal Service (USPS )

594to Hawkins, verifying that the USPS failed to deliver or

604misdelivered a notice. Hawkins verified that this letter

612concerned the USPSÓs failure to deliver the FCHR Notice, and

622further testified that she eventually received the FCHR Notice at

632some point i n August 2018 . Based on these circumstances, the

644undersigned orally denied Allied UniversalÓs motion to dismiss at

653the final hearing, as it is possible that Hawkins timely filed

664her Petition for Relief. 1/

669Hawkins testified on her own behalf and called no other

679witnesses. PetitionerÓs Exhibits 1 through 4 were received into

688evidence without objection. Allied Universal called James

695Goodman and Bobby Owens as its witnesses. RespondentÓs

703Exhibits 1 through 14 were received into evidence without

712objectio n.

714The one - volume T ranscript of the hearing was filed with the

727Division on January 4, 2019. On January 14, 2019, Allied

737Universal timely submitted a Proposed Recommended Order , which

745the undersigned has considered in the preparation of this

754Recommended Order. Hawkins did not submit a proposed recommended

763order.

764All statutory references are to the 2018 codification of the

774Florida Statutes unless otherwise indicated.

779FINDING S OF FACT

7831. Allied Universal provides security officers to various

791locations. It currently employs Hawkins as a sergeant (and

800formerly, as a security professional) . Allied Universal has

809assigned Hawkins to serve at the Florida Department of RevenueÓs

819(DOR) , offices in Tallahassee, Florida. Her duties include

827maintaining access co ntrol, performing regular surveillance

834patrols, and providing security over persons and property.

8422. Previously, Hawkins served as a security professional

850for Universal Protection Services, LP, at the DOR location. In

860August 2016, Universal Protection Se rvices, LP , merged with

869AlliedBarton Security Services, LLC, to form Allied Universal.

8773. In May 2016 (prior to the me rger), Bobby Owens (Owens),

889an operations m anager for Universal Protection Services, LP, and

899now Allied Universal, recommended to Tallaha ssee Branch Manager

908James Goodman (Goodman) that Hawkins be promoted to Sergeant and

918receive a raise in pay. Goodman, who did not have the authority

930to do so, requested approval from higher - level managers.

940Universal Protection Services, LP, promoted Hawk ins to Sergeant,

949and increased her wages from $8.35 to $8.50 per hour, effective

960May 13, 2016.

9634. Hawkins, Owens, and Goodman remained in their positions

972with Allied Universal after the merger.

9785. Goodman testified that in 2017, he met, via conference

988ca ll, with a regional vice president and southeast president of

999Allied Universal, concerning Ðmarket erosion.Ñ Goodman explained

1006that Ðmarket erosionÑ was Ðprofit loss that we were losing based

1017on officers that were working at a higher pay rate than what wa s

1031contracted with individual clients.Ñ GoodmanÓs superiors tasked

1038him with identifying any employees who were being paid Ðout of

1049profile,Ñ i.e., higher than the contracted rate, and reducing

1059their wages accordingly.

10626. Goodman testified that he reviewed the salaries of over

1072375 officers under his supervision, and identified 17 who he

1082determined were Ðout of profile.Ñ Hawkins was one of those

1092officers he determined was Ðout of profile.Ñ Goodman testified

1101that these 17 Ðout of profileÑ officers included i ndividuals who

1112were white, African American, male, female, over the age of 40,

1123and under the age of 40.

11297. Goodman testified that Allied Universal reduced the

1137salaries of these 17 officers, including Hawkins. Allied

1145Universal reduced HawkinsÓs salary fro m $8.50 per hour to her

1156previous salary of $8.35 per hour ($0.15 per hour), effective

1166December 2017. Goodman noted that other officers received a

1175greater reduction in pay than Hawkins.

11818. In November 2017, Allied Universal issued Hawkins a

1190ÐCoaching Î Co unseling Î Disciplinary NoticeÑ for failure to

1200follow Allied UniversalÓs attendance policy. Hawkins reported to

1208work two - and - a - half hours late. She testified that she informed

1223a DOR employee, Sam Omeke, that she had a doctorÓs appointment

1234that morning, b ut did not inform anyone with Allied Universal.

12459. In December 2017, Hawkins requested that Allied

1253Universal provide or assist her with Ðhurricane reliefÑ pay for

1263the week in September 2017 , that the State of Florida closed her

1275worksite because of Hurrica ne Irma. She testified that she was

1286not sure if Allied Universal offered such a program, and further

1297testified that she ultimately never applied for any type of

1307compensation lost as a result of Hurricane Irma.

131510. Later in December 2017, Allied Universal implemented

1323HawkinsÓs pay reduction. Thereafter, in January 2018, Hawkins

1331sent an e - mail to several employees with Allied Universal,

1342stating her concerns about the pay decrease. Owens testified

1351that he received the e - mail, which was encrypted, and calle d

1364Hawkins to discuss, but she did not answer her phone. They spoke

1376the next day, and Owens directed Hawkins to speak with another

1387Allied Universal employee to discuss the pay decrease.

139511. In early 2018, Allied Universal implemented a new

1404timekeeping sys tem for its employees called ÐTeam Time,Ñ which

1415required employees to record their time via telephone. Owens

1424testified that because multiple sites encountered difficulties

1431with ÐTeam TimeÑ on its first day, he called all of the worksites

1444he supervised to determine whether those employees had

1452experienced issues with it. Owens testified that he called

1461Hawkins more than one time that day, and that she did not answer.

147412. Owens testified that, on two separate occasions, he

1483visited HawkinsÓs worksite and aske d her to sign Allied Universal

1494documents, including the ÐEmployee Handbook Receipt and

1501Acknowledgement,Ñ and the ÐJob Safety Analysis Acknowledgement.Ñ

1509Owens testified that on these two separate visits, Hawkins

1518refused to sign them. Hawkins was the only Allied Universal

1528employee in Tallahassee who refused to sign these documents.

1537Allied Universal did not discipline Hawkins for her refusal to

1547sign these documents.

155013. In her Charge of Discrimination, Petition for Relief,

1559and at the final hearing, Hawkins contends that the actions

1569detailed in paragraphs 7 through 12 , above , constituted

1577retaliation. Prior to filing the Charge of Discrimination with

1586FCHR in February 2018, Hawkins never complained to Allied

1595Universal about retaliation, harassment, or discrim ination.

160214. Hawkins remains an employee of Allied Universal at the

1612DOR location in Tallahassee.

161615. Hawkins presented no persuasive evidence that Allied

1624discriminated against her because she opposed an unlawful

1632employment practice, or because she made a charge, testified,

1641assisted, or participated in any manner in an investigation,

1650proceeding, or hearing under the FCRA. There is no competent,

1660persuasive evidence in the record, direct or circumstantial, upon

1669which the undersigned could make a finding of unlawful

1678retaliation.

1679CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

168216. The Division has jurisdiction over the subject

1690matter and the parties to this proceeding in accordance with

1700sections 120.569, 120.57(1), and 760.11(7), Florida Statutes.

1707See also Fla. Admin. Code R. 60Y - 4.016 (providing that upon a

1720petition for relief from an unlawful employment practice, a

1729hearing shall be conducted by an administrative law judge).

173817. The FCRA protects individuals from discrimination in

1746employment as a result of retaliation. See §§ 760.10 and 760.11,

1757Fla. Stat. Section 760.10(7) states, in pertinent part:

1765(7) It is an unlawful employment practice

1772for an employer . . . to discriminate against

1781any person because that person has opposed

1788any practice which is an unlawful employment

1795practice u nder this section, or because that

1803person has made a charge, testified,

1809assisted, or participated in any manner in an

1817investigation, proceeding, or hearing under

1822this section.

182418. Because the FCRA is patterned after federal anti -

1834discrimination laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act

1845of 1964 (Title VII), courts rely on federal Title VII cases when

1857analyzing race discrimination and retaliation claims brought

1864pursuant to the FCRA. See Ponce v. City of Naples , 2017 U.S.

1876Dist. LEXIS 169635, at *11 (M .D. Fla. Oct. 13, 2017); Harper v.

1889Blockbuster EntmÓt Corp. , 139 F.3d 1385, 1387 (11th Cir. 1998)

1899(finding that the complaint fails for the same reasons under

1909Title VII and the FCRA); Valenzuela v. GlobeGround N. Am., LLC ,

192018 So. 3d 17, 21 (Fla. 3d DCA 200 9).

193019. The burden of proof in an administrative proceeding is

1940on Hawkins as the complainant. See DepÓt of Banking & Fin., Div.

1952of Sec. & Investor Prot. v. Osborne Stern & Co. , 670 So. 2d 932,

1966935 (Fla. 1996)(ÐThe general rule is that a party asserting t he

1978affirmative of an issue has the burden of presenting evidence as

1989to that issue.Ñ). To show a violation of the FCRA, Hawkins must

2001establish, by a preponderance of the evidence, a prima facie case

2012of retaliation. See St. Louis v. Fla. IntÓl Univ. , 60 So . 3d

2025455, 458 - 59 (Fla. 3d DCA 2011)(reversing jury verdict awarding

2036damages on FCRA racial discrimination and retaliation claims

2044where employee failed to show similarly situated employees

2052outside his protected class were treated more favorably). A

2061Ðprima facieÑ case means it is legally sufficient to establish a

2072fact or that a violation happened unless disproved.

208020. The Ðpreponderance of the evidenceÑ is the Ðgreater

2089weightÑ of the evidence, or evidence that Ðmore likely than notÑ

2100tends to prove the fact at issue. This means that if the

2112undersigned found the parties presented equally competent

2119substantial evidence, Hawkins would not have proved her claims by

2129the Ðgreater weightÑ of the evidence, and would not prevail in

2140this proceeding. See Gross v. Lyon s , 763 So. 2d 276, 289 n.1

2153(Fla. 2000).

2155Retaliation

215621. To establish a prima facie case of retaliation, Hawkins

2166must show that: (1) she was engaged in statutorily protected

2176expression or conduct; (2) she suffered an adverse employment

2185action; and (3) th ere is a causal relationship between the two

2197events. Holifield v. Reno , 115 F.3d 1555, 1566 (11th Cir.

22071997).

220822. In order to satisfy the Ðstatutorily protected

2216expression or conductÑ requirement, Hawkins must establish that

2224her opposition to unlawful e mployment practices was sufficient to

2234communicate to Allied Universal that she believed that Allied

2243Universal was engaged in unlawful discriminatory conduct. See

2251Murphy v. City of Aventura , 616 F. Supp. 2d 1267, 1279 (S.D.

2263Fla. 2009); Webb v. R&B Holding Co., Inc. , 992 F. Supp. 1382,

22751389 (S.D. Fla. 1998).

227923. If Hawkins establishes a prima facie case of

2288retaliation, the burden then shifts to Allied Universal to

2297articulate a legitimate, non - discriminatory reason for its

2306action. See Addison v. Fla. DepÓt of Corr. , 683 Fed. Appx. 770,

2318774 (11th Cir. 2017); Sierminski vansouth Fin. Corp. , 216

2327F.3d 945, 950 (11th Cir. 2000). This burden is a very light one.

2340See Holifield , 115 F.3d at 1564.

234624. If Allied Universal meets this burden, the burden then

2356shi fts back to Hawkins, to show that Allied UniversalÓs proffered

2367reason is mere pretext. See James v. Total Sols., Inc. , 691 Fed.

2379Appx. 572, 574 (11th Cir. 2017); Quigg v. Thomas Cnty Sch. Dist. ,

2391814 F.3d 1227, 1237 (11th Cir. 2016).

239825. Hawkins contends t hat Allied Universal retaliated

2406against her when: (a) it reduced her pay; (b) it issued the

2418ÐCoaching Î Counseling Î Disciplinary NoticeÑ for failing to

2427follow Allied UniversalÓs attendance policy; (c) it failed to

2436provide, or assist her with seeking, Ðhu rricane reliefÑ; and

2446(d) when various supervisory employees either called or visited

2455her worksite.

245726. With respect to HawkinsÓs allegation that Allied

2465Universal retaliated against her when it reduced her pay, Hawkins

2475has failed to allege that she engage d in statutorily protected

2486expression or conduct. Hawkins testified that she never

2494complained to Allied Universal concerning retaliation,

2500harassment, or discrimination. Although Hawkins complained, via

2507e - mail, about the reduction in her pay, this complai nt does not

2521rise to the level of statutorily protected expression or conduct.

2531Additionally, Goodman credibly testified that the pay reduction

2539was a legitimate business decision, equally applied to 17 total

2549employees, regardless of race, gender, or age.

25562 7. With respect to HawkinsÓs allegation that Allied

2565Universal retaliated against her in the form of the ÐCoaching Î

2576Counseling Î Disciplinary Notice,Ñ Hawkins received this form of

2586discipline in November 2017, before she made complaints

2594concerning her pay reduction in January 2018 (and before Allied

2604Universal made the ultimate decision to reduce her pay). Hawkins

2614testified that she did not inform Allied Universal of her absence

2625from her assigned post , which forms the basis for this

2635discipline. The unders igned concludes that Hawkins cannot

2643establish a prima facie case of retaliation with respect to this

2654discipline.

265528. With respect to HawkinsÓs allegation that Allied

2663Universal failed to provide, or assist her with seeking,

2672Ðhurricane relief,Ñ Hawkins fail ed to provide any evidence that

2683required Allied Universal to pay her for time she did not work

2695because of Hurricane Irma, or any obligation to assist Hawkins to

2706seek compensation for such missed pay. Additionally, Hawkins

2714testified that she never sought c ompensation as a result of

2725Hurricane Irma.

272729. With respect to HawkinsÓs allegation that Allied

2735Universal retaliated against her when supervisory employees

2742called or visited her worksite, the undersigned construes such

2751allegations as retaliatory harassmen t, which Ðrequires proof of

2760harassing acts so severe or pervasive that they altered the terms

2771and conditions of [HawkinsÓs] employment.Ñ Bozeman v. Per - Se

2781Techs., Inc. , 456 F. Supp. 2d 1282, 1345 (N.D. Ga. 2006). This

2793requirement Ðto prove that the haras sment was severe and

2803pervasive ensures that Title VII does not become a Ògeneral

2813civility code.ÓÑ Id . (citing Faragher v. City of Boca Raton , 524

2825U.S. 775, 788, 118 S. Ct. 2275, 141 L. Ed. 2 d 662 (1998)).

283930. Hawkins alleges that the retaliatory harassme nt

2847consisted of Owens calling her and visiting her worksite, when he

2858requested that Hawkins sign Allied Universal documents, including

2866the ÐEmployee Handbook Receipt and Acknowledgement,Ñ and the ÐJob

2876Safety Analysis Acknowledgement,Ñ which she refused to sign, and

2886for which Allied Universal never disciplined her. Hawkins

2894testified that she received no more than two or three calls from

2906Owens in a particular day. The undersigned concludes that,

2915rather than Ðsevere or pervasive harassing acts,Ñ these

2924compla ined - of acts are the type of conduct one would normally

2937expect of a supervisor. As Hawkins has failed to establish that

2948Allied Universal engaged in Ðsevere or pervasive harassing acts,Ñ

2958her retaliatory harassment claim must fail as a matter of law.

2969RECOMM ENDATION

2971Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of

2981Law, it is RECOMMENDED that the Florida Commission on Human

2991Relations issue a final order finding that Petitioner, Lucinda

3000Hawkins, did not prove that Respondent, Allied Universal Security

3009Services, committed unlawful employment practices, or retaliated

3016against her, and dismissing her Petition for Relief from unlawful

3026employment practices.

3089this 2 5 th day of January, 2019 .

3098ENDNOTE

30991/ The undersigned concludes that the doctrine of equitable

3108tolling applies to HawkinsÓs late - filed Petition for Relief. See

3119Machules v. DepÓt of Admin. , 523 S o. 2d 1132 (Fla. 1988)(applying

3131the equitable tolling doctrine in administrative proceedings).

3138Equitable tolling applies when a petitioner Ðhas been misled or

3148lulled into action, has in some extraordinary way been prevented

3158from asserting his rights, or h as timely asserted his rights

3169mistakenly in the wrong forum.Ñ Id . at 1134. Further, the

3180equitable tolling doctrine Ðfocuses on the plaintiffÓs excusable

3188ignorance of the limitations period and on [the] lack of

3198prejudice to the defendant.Ñ Brown v. DepÓt of Fin. Servs. , 899

3209So. 2d 1246, 1247 (Fla. 4th DCA 2005) (quoting Machules , 523 So.

32212d at 1134). The undersigned finds that the USPSÓs failure to

3232deliver the FCHR N otice prevented Hawkins from exercising her

3242rights in a timely fashion. The undersigned further concludes

3251that consideration of HawkinsÓs Petition for Relief, which she

3260may have filed within 35 days of actually receiving the FCHR

3271N otice, does not prejudice Allied Universal.
