Bill > S04052

This bill amends the New York Labor Law to expand the definition of "covered airport location" by adding Stewart International Airport to the existing list of locations that currently includes John F. Kennedy International Airport and LaGuardia Airport. The significance of this change is that it ensures workers at Stewart International Airport will be subject to the same minimum wage rates as workers at the other two specified airports. By explicitly including Stewart International Airport in the definition, the bill ensures these workers receive consistent wage protections. The amendment is part of a broader effort to standardize minimum wage requirements for airport workers across different airport locations in New York State. The bill will take effect immediately upon enactment, meaning the expanded definition of covered airport location will be in place as soon as the bill becomes law.
