All private sector workers in New York State are now covered under the state’s new sick and safe leave law,
regardless of industry, occupation, part-time status, overtime exempt status, and seasonal status.
The law requires employers with five or more employees to provide their employees with paid sick and safe leave.
Businesses with fewer than five employees and a net income of $1 million or less must provide unpaid sick and
safe leave to employees
