Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 1 costs, 1 mixed.
Freight app contractors excluded from rules
Arizona law excludes platforms that arrange paid transport of freight or sealed, closed envelopes, boxes, parcels, or other containers from its qualified marketplace rules. Contractors using those platforms cannot rely on this law’s independent-contractor classification route through that platform. This applies to contracts and add-ons entered into on or after the law takes effect. The exclusion does not by itself determine whether a worker is an employee or an independent contractor under other rules.
New contractor status rules for gig workers
Arizona law creates a route for qualified marketplace contractors to count as independent contractors under state and local laws, including unemployment and workers’ compensation laws. For contracts or add-ons made on or after the law takes effect, nearly all pay must be tied to services or other output, and a written contract with a qualifying platform must say the worker is not an employee. The platform must take service requests through its website or app, not by phone, fax, or in person. The contract must base pay on output, let the worker choose schedules (though it can require work at stated hours), and allow work for others. It must also put nearly all expenses and income taxes on the worker and let either side end it without cause on reasonable notice; the worker can end it alone on reasonable notice. The law also covers qualifying services performed before August 6, 2016, when the same criteria and a compliant contract apply. This section is optional; not meeting it does not by itself prove a worker is an employee.
