Summary

This bill would ensure that contracted delivery workers that work scheduled shifts retain a minimum level of scheduling flexibility to protect a worker or worker’s family member’s health, safety or other urgent needs (“safe/sick time,” e.g., for medical care, childcare, immigration or legal needs, and domestic violence-related protections). Such safe/sick time is unpaid. Delivery services may not reduce or alter a worker’s access to work opportunities based on safe/sick time use. Contracted delivery workers are entitled to a minimum of 14 safe/sick hours upon being retained by a covered delivery service, and accrue 1 additional hour of safe/sick time for every 30 hours worked. A delivery service may request limited supporting documentation if a worker uses 1 hour or more of safe/sick time during 4 or more consecutive shifts. Delivery services may not update a worker’s performance metrics more than once in 30 days and must provide the worker with 30-day advance notice of such updates.
