AI Summary

This bill establishes collective bargaining rights for TNC (Transportation Network Company) drivers in Massachusetts. It creates a process for TNC drivers to designate an "exclusive driver representative" to negotiate with the TNC on their behalf on issues like pay, hours, and working conditions. The bill requires TNCs to provide driver contact information to the representative, and sets timelines for the certification and decertification of the exclusive driver representative. It also prohibits TNCs from interfering with drivers' exercise of these rights and provides for enforcement by the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development, with potential penalties of up to $10,000 per day for violations.
