With the enactment of the Trapped at Work Act, New York now restricts the use of stay-or-pay provisions that can leave workers financially trapped in jobs that they would otherwise leave. The law took effect immediately on December 19, 2025, and while some proposed amendments may soften its impact, employers should assume, for now, that the trapdoor is open. https://www.wfpclaw.com/blog/the-magic-words-every-hr-professional-should-hear monthly 0.5 2026-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/686595a001a5b162b512c0b2/6285a366-2862-425c-ae7d-396ba7aaa8cb/unsplash-image-RqR2pnTpmHA.jpg Blog - The “Magic Words” Every HR Professional Should Hear - “Wingardium . . .

But amidst the end-of-year chaos, the New York City Council was hard at work passing several amendments and new laws to further alter the employment landscape. Three important updates, addressed below, amend the NYC’s Earned Safe and Sick Time Act (“ESSTA”) and the NYC Human Rights Law (“NYCHRL”) and enact a limitation on automation of certain human resources functions. While the Automated Employment Decision Tools Law is not effective until January 1, 2023, employers would be prudent to familiarize themselves with this law now, as it fundamentally alters certain automated hiring and promotion operations for employers in NYC. https://www.wfpclaw.com/blog/new-york-expands-whistleblower-protections monthly 0.5 2026-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/686595a001a5b162b512c0b2/adf5d926-9687-4759-8f6f-da624d49bd80/unsplash-image-izpGQ-T1ghA.jpg Blog - New York Expands Whistleblower Protections for Employees in January 2022 - Imagine this: You run a food delivery service.

Generally, Section 201-D limits employers’ ability to take adverse action against employees who engage in certain statutorily defined “protected” activities, such as engagement in political speech, outside of the workplace. Among other things, the MRTA amended Section 201-D to include the legal use of cannibals and other lawful consumable products as protected activity under Section 201-D. In other words, NY employers are now prohibited from discriminating against employees based on the employee’s use of legal cannabis outside of the workplace, outside of work hours, and without use of the employer’s equipment or property. In contrast, the illegal use, sale, or transportation of cannabis is not protected by Section 201-D of the Labor Law. https://www.wfpclaw.com/blog/vaccine-mandate monthly 0.5 2026-02-25 https://www.wfpclaw.com/blog/happy-birthday monthly 0.5 2026-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/686595a001a5b162b512c0b2/f0c960cb-a8af-4ae3-88ce-a78e9154bc9e/New-Jewish-Voice.webp Blog - Happy Birthday! - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.wfpclaw.com/blog/covid-19 monthly 0.5 2026-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/686595a001a5b162b512c0b2/1771982684695-ZX7ZVEJ6ZWJ6QZTMVS69/unsplash-image-rnr8D3FNUNY.jpg Blog - NYS Designates COVID-19 a Highly Contagious Communicable Disease: Now What? - On September 6, 2021, New York State Health Commissioner Howard Zucker designated COVID-19 as a highly contagious communicable disease.
