Webinar Recording: Off the Clock: Quarterly New York Wage & Hour Update

About the Program

This webinar recording provides a quarterly update on key developments in wage and hour law affecting employers across the New York Metro region. We cover new and emerging requirements, enforcement trends, and significant legal decisions, with practical insights to help employers stay compliant and mitigate risk. Viewers will leave with a clear understanding of current trends and a forward‑looking view of what may be coming next.

Topics include:

The political landscape is shifting as New York City's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, begins his administration and New York enters a high-stakes 2026 gubernatorial election year, both of which may influence regulatory focus and policy direction.
Key wage & hour trends impacting New York employers as litigation and enforcement continue to surge.
Tip, gratuity, and industry‑specific pay requirements continuing to shift for app-based, hospitality, and other sectors.
Enforcement and compliance priorities for 2026, including increased focus on payroll practices and worker protections.
