New York Employers Must Now Advise New Hires in Writing of Their Rate of Pay and Overtime Rate |
October 20, 2009
Previously published on September 2009
New York recently amended its Labor Law § 195 to require employers to advise all new hires in writing of their rate of pay and regular pay day. For non-exempt, overtime-eligible employees, the notice must include the regular hourly rate as well as the overtime rate. Employers also must obtain from each new hire a written acknowledgment of the required notice. Before this amendment, the labor law required only that new hires be advised of the rate of pay and regular pay day. No written notice, written acknowledgment of that notice, or statement of the overtime rate was previously required.
