[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 2108600, member: 60252"] That isn't a new argument- it is just an expansion of the fact that fedex supplies what is needed for the job. The fact that fedex supplied uniforms, mapping, scanners, decals, etc was a big part of the employee status determination. Even the fact that you operate under fedex DOT authority was part of the reasoning. With fedex adding insurance coverage, it would make it more likely, not less likely that ISP operations are employees. I know that in Oregon at least, it doesn't matter how many people work for you, if fedex controls your operation past a certain point, you are an employee and your drivers are also fedex employees. That exact situation occurred in my case. In general, if someone is a contractor, he supplies his own insurance and own tools for the job. Then the contractor is judged by final results, not by how he goes about it. [/QUOTE]
