About the Program

Compliance with New York City’s Fair Workweek Law and Earned Safe and Sick Time Act presents many challenges for employers with New York City operations, especially given the aggressive approach of the City’s Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP).  Please join Seyfarth Shaw for an in-person interactive breakfast briefing, specifically tailored for retail and fast food employers, focused on recent compliance initiatives from the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection and practical tips and best practices and processes that can enhance compliance with these two nuanced mandates.  Among the topics that will be covered are the following:

  • An assessment of recent settlement data from the DCWP and the New York City Comptroller’s newly released “Employer Wall of Shame”;
  • An overview of New York City’s Fair Workweek Law and Earned Safe and Sick Time Act, with a focus on practical and administrative compliance for employer policies, procedures, and systems;
  • What employers should expect when faced with DCWP audit on Fair Workweek and/or Earned Safe and Sick Time; and
  • A forecast of where the DCWP might take these mandates in 2025.
