[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 1863878, member: 60252"] Here is a link to help you understand the issue. Under this law, Anyone who supplies workers to fedex( ISPs) to do Fedex's core business (delivery) is a de-facto partner of fedex, with fedex assuming liability for the ISP. [URL]http://independentcontractorcompliance.com/2014/10/01/new-california-law-imposes-costly-risks-to-companies-using-independent-contractors-supplied-by-staffing-and-recruiting-firms-but-risks-can-be-minimized/[/URL] Fedex doesn't want partners, so after they reduce the number of potential lawsuits by reducing the number of people they contract with, they WILL cancel the contract. Fewer contractors means fewer class members. Fedex will eventually shift to all employee drivers, with more flexibility to decide who delivers what package, and where and when. Fedex drivers will still supply the vehicle, which fedex will have more control over, and drivers will be reimbursed, by hourly pay, vehicle reimbursement, and maybe even a per stop and package pay. In fact, the pay method may look astonishingly like the original system under the single contractor system. But, be clear, Fedex DOES NOT want to be legal partners with a bunch of small time 'ISPs" and have all the liability that a partnership exposes them to. The efficiency of having full control over drivers and the cost saving of still not having an entire fleet of vehicles will still keep them very competitive with UPS. [/QUOTE]
