New York Labor Laws 240 and 241 Provide training on how to properly use safety equipment (e.g., scaffolding, ladders, harnesses, and other equipment designed to prevent workplace injuries). Inspect safety equipment regularly to ensure it is functioning properly and appropriate for the job.
Remote workers in New York are protected by the state's anti-discrimination and equal opportunity laws. These laws ensure that everyone working remotely receives equal opportunities, wages, and benefits as their coworkers working onsite.
For example, New York's minimum wage and overtime laws apply to all non-exempt employees, regardless of where they work. Additionally, New York's anti-discrimination laws apply to all employees, regardless of where they are located.
New York City's Labor Law 200, applying to laborers such as construction workers, describes the duty of employers and construction site owners “to protect the health and safety of employees” by assuring them of “reasonable and adequate protection” for any type of work they have been hired to perform.
Generally, employment laws focus on the location where the work is performed, not necessarily where the employer is based. That said, NYC employment laws might still apply if the employer's conduct, policies, or decisions are made in the city.
When you're hiring someone who lives out of state, you are obligated to comply with the state employment laws where your new employee works. For instance, if you're a company based in Ohio that hires a developer in California, your new employee is protected by California's employment laws.
What is my New York Bar number? Many states have Bar numbers; New York does not. The registration number, which appears on the biennial registration form, is used for internal Office of Court Administration record-keeping only.
