Frequently Asked Questions about Prop 22
Updated this week

Does Prop 22 apply to me?

Prop 22 only applies to California gig drivers performing deliveries on Curri's platform for deliveries that originate from within California. A California gig driver is a California resident that is not employed by any other motor carrier or courier company and is performing deliveries that originate within California using a personal vehicle (not a box truck, flatbed, or any other commercial motor vehicle)


What benefits does Prop 22 provide to California gig drivers?

See our article on Getting to Know Prop 22


How is Guaranteed Minimum Compensation calculated under Prop 22?

Guaranteed minimum compensation is an hourly rate equal to 120% of local minimum wage during active delivery time, plus $0.35 per mile for distance travelled directly to pickup and directly between pickup and drop off. See our further explanation of Guaranteed Minimum Compensation here.


Why would my original delivery payout be less than what Prop 22 requires sometimes?

  • Your payments are reviewed to ensure your total payments Curri meet or exceed the amount you’re guaranteed under Prop 22.

    • If payments you received from Curri during a payout period are less than the required guaranteed earnings we'll automatically add a Curri pay adjustment for the difference. No action is required from you.

    • If the amount of Curri delivery pay you earned is equal to or greater than the guaranteed earnings, your pay will stay the same.

    • You will only receive a pay adjustment if you’re eligible for additional earnings. Your earnings will never be reduced.


What does active delivery time mean related to your calculation of my Prop 22 minimum compensation?

Active delivery time is the period of time from when a driver begins their trip to when the driver completes the order, or to the time when the order is canceled by the customer. However, active delivery time does not include any time between accepting a delivery opportunity and completion of the delivery that the driver spends not actively completing the delivery (i.e. driving directly to pickup or from pickup to drop off locations).

Drivers will not be paid for active delivery time if they abandon or choose not to complete the delivery after they have accepted the offer, or if fraud or other misconduct impacting the accuracy of Curri's active delivery time data is detected by Curri.


How is the local minimum wage determined?

For each delivery, local minimum wage is based on publicly available information regarding the minimum wage in the location where a driver picks up a delivery.


How will I know if I'm owed additional compensation for my deliveries under Prop 22?

If you're curious about whether you're owed additional compensation for your deliveries under Prop 22, we recommend reaching out to our compliance team to ensure that everything is in compliance. Please contact them at [email protected], and they will be able to review your account and deliveries to provide you with the necessary information.


Who should I contact if I have questions about any benefits I may be entitled to under Prop 22?

Please contact us at [email protected]

Be sure to include your full name and the email associated with your Curri account so we can locate your profile and assist with any questions you may have.


Will I be paid back for tolls and fees?

No. You are responsible for tolls and fees (parking fees, parking tickets or traffic tickets). Per the Driver Agreement, you, as the Contractor, will determine how to deliver using the Curri platform which includes where to park to pick up or deliver and the route you will take.


What Healthcare Plan Subsidies do I qualify for?

What type of insurance coverage does Curri offer?

Occupational accident insurance covers all Curri gig drivers while performing delivery services on the Curri platform to cover medical expenses and other losses resulting from injuries suffered while the driver is making deliveries.

See Curri's help article on Occupational Accident Coverage for more information.

Curri also maintains automobile liability insurance with limits satisfying Prop 22's requirements, which covers injuries or other losses to third parties that are proximately caused by the operation of an automobile by a Curri gig driver during their active delivery time, in instances where the automobile is not otherwise covered by a policy that complies with state automobile insurance requirements.


Does Curri have a sexual harassment prevention policy?

Yes. See Curri's help article on the: Sexual Harassment Policy


What is a Zero-Tolerance policy?

This policy requires that any driver reported to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol while providing delivery services will have their access to our platform immediately suspended. For more information: See Curri's Help Center Article on our Zero Tolerance Policy for Drivers
