WASHINGTON, Oct 20, 2009 /PRNewswire-USNewswire via COMTEX/ --
Hoffa: Time for FedEx to Stop Dodging State Taxes, Worker Protections
The Teamsters Union on Tuesday praised attorneys general in New York, Montana and New Jersey for putting FedEx Ground (NYSE: FDX) on notice that the company faces legal action for violating labor laws, including shifting tax obligations onto residents through an illegal driver misclassification scheme.
"FedEx Ground can't get away with being a bully anymore, hiding behind its army of lobbyists to avoid responsibilities to workers and to American taxpayers," said Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa. "This is an issue of fairness. The laws of this country apply to everyone."
Attorneys General Andrew Cuomo of New York, Steve Bullock of Montana and Anne Milgram of New Jersey sent a letter Tuesday to FedEx Ground warning the company that it faces legal action, including restitution, damages, civil penalties and other relief over its illegal misclassification of drivers.
"FedEx's illegal misclassification of its drivers has resulted in a serious injustice to more than a thousand FedEx drivers in Montana, New Jersey and New York," the letter said, also adding that "...besides hurting FedEx drivers, FedEx's practices hurt the states of New Jersey, New York and Montana when proper taxes are not paid. FedEx's practices also hurt other employers, which face unfair competition as a result of FedEx's illegal cost-cutting measures."
The three states found that FedEx Ground drivers are illegally misclassified as independent contractors, therefore denying them employment rights such as workers' compensation benefits, anti-discrimination laws and wage and hour protections. FedEx Ground drivers are required to spend thousands of dollars for trucks, repairs, uniforms, fuel and other equipment. The company controls the hours they work, how they dress and when they drive their own trucks.
"FedEx Ground has been cheating its workers and fleecing the taxpayers for too long," said Ken Hall, Teamsters International Vice President and Director of the Package Division. "Andrew Cuomo, Steve Bullock and Anne Milgram deserve credit for standing up to a powerful multinational that pads its profits by skirting state laws. Thanks to them, FedEx and its CEO Fred Smith won't be allowed to profit from this scheme at the expense of its workforce and the American taxpayers."
FedEx Ground is currently the subject of investigations by 30 other states over its misclassification scheme. Also, more than 45 class-action lawsuits have been filed against the company in state and federal courts over the issue.
Misclassification of employees not only cheats workers, but leads to the loss of federal income and employment tax revenue. It is estimated that more than $4.7 billion in federal income is lost due to this practice. At the state level, misclassifying 1 percent of workers results in an average of $198 million lost annually to state unemployment insurance funds.
Founded in 1903, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents 1.4 million hardworking men and women in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.

OTTAWA, ONTARIO, Oct 21, 2009 (Marketwire via COMTEX) --
On Friday, October 23rd, Federal Express Canada Ltd. ("FedEx Express Canada"), a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE:FDX), in support of Tree Canada and with the help of FedEx volunteers and students and staff at Featherston Drive Public School, will rejuvenate the school's grounds by adding a variety of trees and shrubs. This greening project is one of 15 that FedEx is supporting in communities across the country in 2009.
"The FedEx Express Canada Greening Canada's School Grounds program with Tree Canada is part of our ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability," said Pina Starnino, vice president of operations for FedEx Express Canada. "We are proud to work with Tree Canada to provide greenery for Featherston Drive Public School and its community to enjoy for years to come."
Featherston Drive Public School was selected to revitalize its school grounds because there was demonstrated interest from students, parents, teachers and the community. Schools interested in applying for funding submitted comprehensive plans to Tree Canada to convert their schoolyards "from mean to green".
In an effort to educate the students, Tree Canada will be teaching students the value of trees, including energy savings, carbon sequestration and beautification, as well as explaining the mechanics of tree planting and maintenance.
"On behalf of the staff and students at Featherston Drive Public School, I would like to thank every volunteer who has provided their support today, and most importantly, those at FedEx Express Canada and Tree Canada who made this possible," said school principal Mari Murray. "Our students will benefit from the new green space and will learn the importance of preserving the environment and how they can contribute to a better quality of life for both current and future generations."
FedEx will "green" another 15 schools in 2010. Schools interested in participating in the Greening Canada's School Grounds program are encouraged to fill out an application at: http://www.treecanada.ca/site/?page=programs_school&lang=en.
In addition to the Greening Canada's School Grounds program, FedEx Express Canada will also provide Tree Canada with ongoing natural emergency relief assistance and will help with Canadian reforestation projects.
Over the last two years, FedEx Express Canada has helped Tree Canada plant 6,250 trees across the country in support of its natural emergency relief and reforestation projects. Examples include the Kelowna, British Columbia lands burned by the 2003 wildfires and the Ontario Land Reclamation Project in Sudbury, Ontario.
FedEx Express Canada also sponsored urban tree planting events organized by Tree Canada in eight Canadian cities, which involved more than 100 FedEx Express Canada employees and volunteers.
We are grateful for the support of companies like FedEx Express Canada-through their generosity and vision that we have been able to successfully promote the educational value of trees and schoolyard greening in communities across Canada," said Michael Rosen, president of Tree Canada. "With the help of our sponsors we are having a positive impact on the overall environment-a benefit that communities all across Canada can share."
