As part of the 2016-17
State Budget, Governor Cuomo signed legislation enacting a statewide $15
minimum wage plan that will lift the earnings of more than 2.1 million New
Yorkers, in all industries across the state. The Governor’s plan takes the
needs of workers and businesses alike into account.
As of December 31, 2016,
the first in a series of wage increases will go into effect. Rates will
differ based on region and industry because the increases are calibrated to
provide businesses ample time to adjust.
