Overview
This bill modifies the process for transportation network company (TNC) drivers to form and join organizations for collective bargaining. Currently, a TNC driver organization must demonstrate authorization from at least 10% of active drivers to represent them. The bill changes this to requiring authorization from at least 30% of active drivers, and establishes a process for a representation election if no organization reaches that threshold. It also creates a procedure for challenging a board’s decision and allows for a writ of extraordinary relief. Finally, it clarifies the timeline for determining driver representation.
Key provisions
- Changes the threshold for TNC driver organizations to require authorization from at least 30% of active drivers instead of 10%.
- Establishes a process for a representation election if no organization reaches the 30% threshold.
- Authorizes petitions for extraordinary relief from board decisions in unfair practice cases.
- Sets forth procedures for filing and reviewing petitions for extraordinary relief.
- Clarifies the timeline for determining driver representation, shifting the start date for the 6-month period.
- Defines the scope of the bargaining unit as a statewide unit of all TNC drivers.
- Provides for a runoff election if no choice receives a majority of votes in the initial election.
- Allows for a decertification election if at least 30% of active TNC drivers demonstrate support for decertification.
