[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 1143361, member: 24302"] It's my understanding that from pick up of the pkg until it arrives at it's destination ramp(we've discussed this, it's where it comes off the plane) it must be handled by company employees. Not contractors or their employees. If they want to make employees do pickups only with Ground type contractors handling all deliveries then it's possible as long as customers understand that. But if that was in the works then why try to implement DRA? Not to mention it would require a huge amount of hiring of contractors and their drivers beforehand. Unlikely many Express couriers would be willing to be Ground type drivers with a pay cut and no benefits. Not to mention there's already alot of debate over misclassification of employees as contractors. Imagine the controversy if FedEx tried to convert employees to contractor employees. Might blow up in their face, may lead to ending the RLA under closer scrutiny. [/QUOTE]
