The resolution establishes the Alabama Portable Benefits Task Force, aimed at studying the need for portable benefits for app-based workers classified as independent contractors. These workers, who provide essential services as drivers or couriers, often lack access to employee benefits such as health care and retirement plans. The task force will consist of members appointed by various state officials, including the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and legislative leaders, ensuring a diverse representation that reflects the state's demographics.

The task force is tasked with investigating the current landscape for app-based workers in Alabama, exploring innovative benefit solutions implemented in other states, and developing legislative recommendations. The first meeting is scheduled for no later than September 1, 2024, and the task force will report its findings and recommendations to the Legislature by the third legislative day of each regular session, with its duties concluding after the 2026 Regular Session.
