What this bill does
Provides unemployment insurance to drivers providing services for transportation network companies (TNC). Changes the conditions under which an employer may be relieved of benefit charges when the employer continues to provide part-time employment for claimants of unemployment insurance. Creates a pilot program in which drivers may elect to pay for Paid Family and Medical Leave coverage, and the TNC pays those drivers an amount equal to the premiums.
