  • RLA Or NLRA? Fedex and UPS Follow the Money Trail
    LABOR AND EMPLOYMENT LAW RLA or NLRA? FedEx and UPS Follow the Money Trail By Frank N. Wilner FexEx Express and UPS compete furiously in the market for expedited pickup and delivery service. Labor costs are a significant component of total costs for both competitors, but they compete on different playing fields: UPS ground-service employees are covered by the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), which permits union organizing at individual terminal locations, while FedEx Express ground-service employees are subject to the Railway Labor Act (RLA), which requires union organizing on a systemwide basis—making it much more difficult to call a strike. UPS has failed on numerous occasions to shift its ground-service employees to RLA coverage and now is aligned with the Teamsters to bring FedEx employees under the NLRA. FedEx Express wants its nonunionized ground-service employees to remain under the RLA; however, legislation has passed the House to bring them under the ambit of the NLRA, and Senate action is expected in early 2010. “We are a freight service with 550-mile per hour delivery trucks” – FedEx founder, Fred Smith1 The Railway Labor Act (RLA) of 19262 is an 83-year-old statute that is distinctly different, in crucial respects, from the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) of 1935.3 The RLA was the nation’s first law guaranteeing workers the right to organize and choose their own bargaining representa- tives. The RLA governs the labor-management relations of railroads and airlines (the latter added in 1936), whereas A Brief Introduction to the Players the NLRA governs other private-sector industries.

Nearly 3,000 people, representing 90 different countries, lost their lives that day. These victims were business men and women, vacation-goers, and loved ones heading from the east coast to California to visit friends and family. What started out as a beautiful Fall day on the east coast in the United States with thousands of commuters heading to work and going about their everyday lives, ended in tragedy and sorrow, leaving behind a permanent scar that would change all our lives forever. The events of 9/11 affected our entire country on a grand scale both economically and culturally. But Massachusetts was a part of this day, from the attacks to the impact.

  • 200115 SFRA Course
    Security-related procedures and requirements are a fact of life for today's pilots, especially those who operate in the Washington, DC metropolitan area Special Flight Rules Area (SFRA) and the DC Flight Restricted Zone (FRZ). Although the rules may sound intimidating, they are not difficult. This course is intended to provide the information you need to fly safely, correctly, and confidently in this airspace. 1 This slide provides a summary of the changes made since the last version of this course. The only changes for this edition are new procedures for filing flight plans for the Flight Restricted Zone, or FRZ. As stated in the regulatory review section, 14 CFR 91.161 requires this training for pilots flying under visual flight rules (VFR) within a 60 nm radius of the Washington DC VOR/DME. This training is a one-time-only requirement, but it is a good idea to periodically review the material for updates and to refresh your knowledge. You should print the certificate of training completion. You do not have to carry it with you, but you must provide it within a reasonable period of time if requested. Now, let’s get started. 2 After the September 11 terrorist attacks, security authorities established the Washington DC Air Defense Identification Zone – the ADIZ – and the Flight Restricted Zone – the FRZ – to protect the nation’s capital. The ADIZ and the FRZ were established and operated via temporary flight restriction, or TFR, until the FAA developed a final rule that took effect on February 17, 2009. That rule codified the ADIZ and the FRZ in 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 93 as the DC Special Flight Rules Area (SFRA).

Gunmen were killing people at Parisian cafes, restaurants, and a concert. Over 130 people died, with many more injured (Steafel). In the aftermath, one can’t help but wonder: why? When ISIS, a Middle-Eastern terrorist group took credit for the massacre, many adults no doubt remember an equally horrifying act of terrorism, 9/11. This bibliography plan is about terrorism, with the sub-topics “ISIS and the Paris Attacks” and “Al-Quaeda and 9/11”. These two sub-topic are major acts of terrorism, and thus go hand-in-hand with the main topic. They are also related to each other, since ISIS is a group that splintered off from Al-Quaeda (Laub). Most of the databases explored in this bibliography plan are general and fact-based, rather than analytical. This allows for researchers to get an idea of what is going on in the world so that they can form their own opinions on this issue and the responses to it.
