Contractor installed this convoluted p-trap + elbow for the washer, and I'm not sure if it's up to code. Can you confirm and more importantly explain why or why not it's compliant?

I stand corrected. I checked where my plumber had connected pvc to the iron stack, and it does use hose clamps but as part of something a little more convincing. It's basically a sleeve with 4 hose clamps mounted on it.
