Employers in New York State will be required to advise new employees hired on and after October 26, 2009, in writing, of the employee's rate of pay and overtime rate (if eligible for overtime), and the employer's regular pay day. In return, the employer must obtain the employee's written acknowledgment that s/he has received this notice. See 2009 N.Y. ALS 270, amending New York Labor Law §195.1. New York employers currently are required to provide newly hired employees with information regarding their rate of pay and the employer's regular pay days, but not in writing.
