FedEx Home Delivery Driver Testifies before U.S. HouseA former FedEx driver told a congressional panel on July 24 that the company misclassified him as an independent contractor though it controlled most aspects of his daily work as it would an employee. Bob Williams, who worked for FedEx Corp. subsidiary FedEx Home Delivery in Northboro, Massachusetts, testified before two House Education and Labor subcommittees. The hearing was titled �The Misclassification of Workers as Independent Contractors.� Williams and his fellow drivers petitioned the NLRB to join Teamster Local Union 170. Following an illegal anti-union campaign, the NLRB has charged FedEx Home Delivery for multiple unfair labor practices.
