Fedex to pay $228 million to settle independent contractor case

2015-06-13 06:05:34| Air Courier - Topix.net

Fedex has agreed to pay $228 million to settle litigation claiming the company short-changed its drivers on pay and benefits by improperly labeling them as independent contractors. The settlement disclosed on Friday is directly related to a decision against the Memphis, Tenn.-based package delivery company in August, when a federal appeals court in Oakland found that FedEx Corp. misclassified 2,300 FedEx Ground and FedEx Home Delivery drivers working in California from 2000 to 2007 as independent contractors.
