Bill > S10539

This bill extends the protections of New York State's Human Rights Law, which prohibits discrimination in employment, to employees who work outside of New York but whose employer has a physical office or location within the state. This means that even if an employee is physically located in another state, if their employer is based in New York, that employee can seek recourse under New York's anti-discrimination laws for issues arising in their employment. The Human Rights Law is a key piece of legislation designed to ensure fair treatment in the workplace, and this bill aims to broaden its reach to cover remote workers connected to New York businesses.
