Bill > A08577

This bill authorizes the Comptroller of the City of New York to enforce and investigate violations of the state minimum wage and certain other labor law provisions within the city's geographic boundaries. The Comptroller would have the same enforcement powers as the Labor Commissioner, including the ability to inspect premises, issue subpoenas, and take other actions to ensure compliance with the law. The bill also allows the Comptroller to adopt further enforcement provisions, remedies, and penalties. However, it does not limit the authority of the Department of Labor or other government agencies to enforce labor standards within the city or elsewhere.
