As a member of the Cornell Agricultural Workforce Development Council, the Northeast Agribusiness and Feed Alliance (NEAFA) urges our members to attend the upcoming New York Labor Roadshow III, so they can be aware of numerous and significant changes in store for their farmer customers. The cost of the roadshow is $55 per person, payable at the door.
The roadshow will touch on a number of topics, including compliance with wage and hour laws and how to balance overtime and Day-of-Rest requirements. Also covered will be insurance updates for disability, paid family leave, and employment practices liability. Other topics include understanding unions and labor organizing, managing the collective bargaining process, the increasing importance of farm supervisors, preventing sexual harassment and the recent updates to the New York law, compliance priorities and enforcement plans for 2020, as well as the NYS Department of Labor Industry Quality Assurance Program Updates.
