FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Labor Law Violations FAQs

New York labor law protects your right to minimum wage, overtime pay, meal and rest breaks, safe working conditions, freedom from retaliation, accurate wage statements, and the right to organize and join unions, among other protections.

No. New York law prohibits retaliation against employees who report labor law violations, participate in investigations, or exercise their rights under labor laws. Retaliation can include termination, demotion, reduced hours, or harassment.

Document the violations, report them to appropriate agencies (such as the New York Department of Labor or OSHA for safety violations), and consult with an attorney. You may be entitled to compensation and protection from retaliation.

Deadlines vary depending on the specific violation. Wage claims typically have a 6-year statute of limitations in New York. Retaliation and other claims may have shorter deadlines. Consult an attorney promptly to preserve your rights.
