Plain-language change summary

The amendments to SB 35 make significant clarifications and changes to the coverage of certain workers, particularly those involved in transportation and delivery services. Specifically, the updated bill adds clarity to which individuals are exempt from workers' compensation, like part-time babysitters and certain entertainers, while outlining new provisions for occupational accident insurance for transportation and delivery network drivers. This matters because it establishes clearer guidelines for insurance obligations and protections for gig economy workers in Alaska, ensuring they have access to necessary safety nets while providing their services.

The bill establishes new insurance requirements and definitions for transportation and delivery network companies in Alaska, while also clarifying exclusions from workers' compensation coverage for their drivers and couriers.

  • AS 21.96.017

    An insurer authorized to write commercial casualty insurance in this state may issue group or blanket occupational accident insurance required under AS 28.23.065. In this section, "group or blanket occupational accident insurance" does not include health care insurance as defined under AS 21.12.050 or workers' compensation insurance.

    This creates a new provision that allows insurers to provide occupational accident insurance for drivers and couriers of transportation and delivery network companies.

  • AS 21.96.018(a)

    while a driver provides a prearranged ride, or while a courier provides delivery services. → while a driver provides a prearranged ride, or while a courier provides delivery services.

    This clarifies that automobile insurance policies can exclude coverage when drivers or couriers are providing their services.

  • AS 21.96.018(b)

    a [THE DRIVER] → a driver

    This removes a specific reference to 'the driver' in order to generalize the statement regarding insurance coverage requirements.

  • AS 21.96.018(b)

    while a [DRIVER] → while a driver

    This amendment replaces the word 'DRIVER' with 'driver' to standardize the language in the section.

  • AS 21.96.018(f)

    In this section, "courier," "delivery network company," "delivery network company courier," "delivery services," "digital network," "driver," "personal vehicle," "prearranged ride," "transportation network company," and "transportation network company driver" have the meanings given in AS 28.23.180.

    This adds definitions for key terms used in the context of transportation and delivery network companies.

  • AS 23.30.230(a)

    a transportation network company driver who provides a prearranged ride or is otherwise logged onto the digital network of a transportation network company as a driver; [AND] → a transportation network company driver who provides a prearranged ride or is otherwise logged onto the digital network of a transportation network company as a driver; and

    This clarifies the exclusion of transportation network company drivers from workers' compensation, specifically addressing their status while they are logged on to the network.

  • AS 28.20.440(m)

    The motor vehicle liability policy of an operator of a vehicle used or maintained for the transportation of persons for hire must contain the following coverage while the operator is transporting persons for hire: (1) primary automobile liability insurance that provides at least $1,000,000 for death, bodily injury, and property damage; (2) uninsured and underinsured motorists coverage, as required under AS 21.96.020 and this section, that provides at least $500,000 for death, bodily injury, and property damage, which may not be waived.

    This establishes new minimum insurance coverage requirements for operators of vehicles transporting persons for hire.

  • AS 28.23.050(a)

    A [TRANSPORTATION NETWORK COMPANY DRIVER, OR TRANSPORTATION NETWORK] company, on behalf of a [THE] driver or courier, shall maintain primary automobile insurance that → A company, on behalf of a driver or courier, shall maintain primary automobile insurance that

    This simplifies the language regarding the insurance responsibilities of transportation and delivery network companies.

  • AS 28.23.050(b)

    A [TRANSPORTATION NETWORK COMPANY] → A company

    This change also clarifies the language regarding insurance requirements for companies while their drivers or couriers are logged onto digital networks.
