[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 441373, member: 1246"] FDX News.......... [B]FedEx pays $26.8M to settle Calif. contractor case[/B] AP ONLINE Posted: 2008-12-05 12:15:00 NEW YORK (AP) — FedEx says it will pay $26.8 million to settle a case in its ongoing battle over whether its Ground unit workers are illegally classified as independent contractors instead of employees. The California Appeals Court ruled last year that about 200 contractors who operated in the state were employees. Memphis, Tenn.-based FedEx Corp. says about 900 workers at FedEx Ground still operate in California as contractors. FedEx spokesman Maury Lane said Friday that while the company disagrees with the original ruling by the California Court of Appeals, it is "pleased to put the matter behind" them. Lane says $19 million of the $26.8 million settlement is for plaintiff attorneys fees, interest and court costs. [/QUOTE]
