[QUOTE="xfedx, post: 971195, member: 37572"] Contractors cannot hide behind FedEx's DOT motor carrier status. That is for an "employee" only. And FedEx has made it clear they are Independent Contractors, not employees. So all DOL regulations defined for employment are out the window. Labor is based at the state level. Overtime at time and a half and double time is due when applicable. Why do you think temps get paid OT? FedEx cannot have it both ways. Either contractors are employees (as they really should be classified) or they are truly independent contractor (in which case they are not classified as a motor carrier and exempt from DOL ruling.
