Bill Summary
For legislation to establish collective bargaining rights for TNC drivers. Labor and Workforce Development.
AI Summary
This bill establishes collective bargaining rights for Transportation Network Company (TNC) drivers in Massachusetts. It allows TNC drivers to designate a "driver representative" to negotiate on their behalf with the TNC companies on matters such as payment, work conditions, and other terms of employment. The bill outlines the process for certifying an "exclusive driver representative" to represent all eligible TNC drivers contracted with a particular company, including the submission of statements of interest from a majority of drivers. The bill also provides for interest arbitration if the TNC company and the exclusive driver representative fail to reach an agreement, and it allows for the decertification of an exclusive driver representative. The bill authorizes the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development to enforce and administer these provisions.
