[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 553422, member: 927"] LTD: As far as I understand, the RLA legislation does not affect the IC issue.... As you say, FedEx is interpreting the IRS code to say that their ground drivers are independent contractors. I agree with you that they are reading this imperfect regulation as they think is right and best for them. There are many lawsuits challenging this interpretation. Just like the UPS supervisor that just won an award. UPS interpreted the law as they thought best and in this case, lost. These IC's are saying that they are not IC's but employees. FedEx has won some cases, but more are pending. The RLA law will not change this as far as I know. The RLA issue and the IC issue are two seperate matters. At least this is how I understand it.
