On Wednesday, the Second Department of New York’s appellate court division issued a much-anticipated ruling in Grant v. Global Aircraft Dispatch Inc., holding that Sections 191 and 198 of the New York Labor Law do not expressly provide employees with a private right of action to sue their employers to recover damages because they are paid biweekly.

As we previously wrote here and here, New York City recently passed a law requiring employers to include the minimum and maximum salary, or wage range, in job postings. The law goes into effect on November 1. As a reminder, NYC employers with 4 or more employees must include salary information in advertisements and job postings. The law applies to any work that is performed or could be performed (including remote work!) within City limits.
