FedEx Home Delivery versus National Labor Relations BoardOn Sept. 28, the National Labor Relations Board ordered FedEx to “cease and desist from failing and refusing to recognize and bargain with Teamsters Local Union 25 as the exclusive collective bargaining representative of the employees” in the two Wilmington, MA Home Delivery units. The company will ignore this order too. On Oct. 1, FedEx appealed the NLRB determination that the Home Delivery drivers are employees in the U.S. Court of Appeals D.C. Circuit. FedEx wants to re-litigate the status of the Wilmington drivers. FedEx must file its statement of issues - meaning repeat its losing argument - by Nov. 2; future filings will be uploaded to our Resource page. The company and their lawyers are not satisfied with losing in the California Court of Appeal; they want a new, bitterer-tasting higher court ruling against them in the U.S. Court of Appeal.
