Bill > K00150

This resolution memorializes Governor Kathy Hochul to officially proclaim November 4, 2025, as Bring Your Parents to Work Day in New York State, highlighting a workplace initiative originally started by LinkedIn in 2013. The resolution notes that many parents do not fully understand their children's professional roles, with research showing that 35% of parents are unfamiliar with their children's job responsibilities and 59% want to know more about their child's career. The goal of the day is to foster better understanding between parents and their working children, potentially improving family relationships and providing social interaction. The resolution references how some companies have embraced the concept by hosting events like photo booths, buffets, and Q&A sessions to introduce parents to their children's workplace environments. By recognizing this day, the legislative body aims to celebrate an event that promotes familial communication and workplace engagement, reflecting a broader effort to bridge generational understanding of professional life.
