Earlier this week Rosa, an airport worker at Ready Jet, filed a sexual harassment and retaliation complaint with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination at 1 Ashburton Place. JetBlue contracts Ready Jet to cleans its airplanes. U.S. Representative Katherine Clark spoke at a press conference about sexual harassment and workers' rights as Rosa filed her complaint.
The New England Jewish Labor Committee stands with Rosa and all workers who have experienced sexual harassment. On Thursday, May 17th at 9:00 a.m. we participated in a community delegation led by Dalida Rocha of SEIU 32BJ to visit JetBlue management, asking them to require better working conditions at Ready Jet. Rabbi Mike Rothbaum was there representing the New England Jewish Labor Committee.
