The bill establishes a new section in Iowa law that prohibits the consideration of motor carrier safety improvements when determining a person's employment status. Specifically, it states that the deployment, implementation, or use of such safety improvements by a motor carrier or its related entities cannot be factored into whether an individual is classified as an employee, independent contractor, or jointly employed employee under state law.

Additionally, the bill defines "motor carrier safety improvement" as any device, equipment, software, technology, procedure, training, policy, program, or operational practice aimed at enhancing compliance with traffic safety laws, particularly those related to motor carrier safety and the safety of vehicle operators and other highway users. This legislation aims to clarify the criteria for employment classification in relation to safety measures implemented by motor carriers.
