Effective November 1, 2022, the NYC Human Rights Law requires employers to include a good faith pay range in job advertisements. NYC's Salary Transparency Law is another step towards pay equity for all New Yorkers.
The Commission released a factsheet highlighting protections for Black New Yorkers and our work to advance human rights and eliminate all forms of racial discrimination.
The NYC Human Rights Law's employment protections extend to all domestic workers, including nannies, home care workers, housecleaners, and any other worker who is employed in a home providing childcare, eldercare, companionship, or housekeeping services in New York City.
New factsheet provides a resource to help public and private vaccination sites make their locations accessible to people with disabilities.
