Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Bill HB 2382 now specifies that transportation network company drivers are eligible for death benefits if they are logged onto their company's digital network and injured, but it removes the previous requirement for them to be physically inside their vehicle or very close to it. This change matters because it broadens the circumstances under which benefits can be claimed, ensuring that more drivers are protected while they are engaged in work-related activities, even if they are not within immediate proximity to their vehicle when the injury occurs.
