Mayor Eric Garcetti planned to meet this afternoon with officials from Total Transportation Services to discuss a labor dispute between the short-haul company and Los Angeles/Long Beach port truck drivers, who allege they’re being misclassified as contractors when they should be paid as full-time employees. Garcetti’s staff was scheduled to meet with another trucking company, Pacific 9 Transportation, which is also being targeted in the port driver’s strike, mayoral spokesman Yusef Robb said.
