New Resource: NY WC Board Panel Decision - July 24, 2007
The list of states that put the lie to FedEx's claim that their "contractor model" passes the smell test is long and growing.
The New York Workers' Compensation Board made just such a ruling in July 2006. The Board Panel ruled unanimously to overturn previous Board rulings and found a FedEx Home Delivery driver to be an employee.
If we know about this ruling, you can be sure that Gov. Spitzer and his team know about it too. Being in Eliot Spitzer's crosshairs is usually not a pleasant place to be. Especially tough for a national package delivery company who routinely misclassifies drivers.
