Histori

LaserShip began as a document delivery service in 1986. In the 1990s, LaserShip landed in a small parcel business during the dot-com boom. In 1999, the company partnered with Barnes & amp; Noble to provide same day delivery service in New York City.

In March 2014 LaserShip added four countries to its service areas: New Hampshire, Rhode Island, West Virginia, and Delaware. This broadens the LaserShip footprint by up to 44 percent, reaching an additional 8.5 million consumers.

Also in March 2014, LaserShip acquired the last delivery company from Cleveland, Prestige Delivery Systems, expanding its services to Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan and Indiana.

Dispute and settlement

Pack throw

Package throwing has become an ongoing issue in e-commerce shipments with national carriers such as UPS and FedEx that handle this issue for years. USPS also continues to struggle with throwing packages and even Amazon.com. In one incident from 2016, a LaserShip delivery man was caught in a tape throwing a $ 500 camera lens a few feet to a concrete-lined terrace. [10] In March 2017, a customer caught a delivery man throwing a packet containing a router on a tape, damaging the content, and reporting the incident to LaserShip.


Error classification and driver inaccuracy

The error of classification of independent contractors has disrupted transportation, among many other industries, for decades. FedEx should continue to address this issue, completing the 2017 case by 227 Million. In April 2018, the California Supreme Court issued a key decision in the matter of Dynamex Operations West, Inc. v. The Los Angeles Superior Court ruled that the drivers were not independent contractors.

In April 2014, LaserShip achieved a $ 800,000 class-action settlement, despite winning a court opinion on the matter, with drivers in Massachusetts accusing the company of misclassifying them as independent contractors to save money. [12] In November 2015, a class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York stating that workers were denied overtime payments, unauthorized reimbursement of compensation received, and for other offenses of the Fair Standard Labor Standards. [13] The outcome of this litigation is still in process.

Tobacco shipments have become an advanced issue with last mile shipments in New York state. In September 2014, LaserShip reached a $ 5 million settlement with New York City for non-tax cigarette shipments. UPS and FedEx both handled this issue with a fine of nearly $ 500 million between the two companies.
