Nassau workers are covered by New York's statewide Paid Family Leave program (NY WCL §200 et seq.), Earned Sick Leave law (NY Lab §196-b), and the HERO Act for airborne-infection protections, all preempting any local paid-leave ordinance.
New York State runs a comprehensive paid-leave framework that applies in Nassau County. Paid Family Leave under the Workers' Compensation Law provides up to 12 weeks at 67% of average weekly wage for bonding, caregiving, or military-family needs, funded by employee contributions. Earned Sick Leave (NY Labor Law §196-b) requires up to 56 hours paid leave annually for employers with 100+ workers. The NY HERO Act mandates airborne-infectious-disease prevention plans. The state preempts local paid-leave ordinances, so Nassau County and its towns cannot create their own. Employers must provide written notices and post required workplace notices.
Failing to provide required leave, retaliating against workers for using leave, or failing to maintain a HERO Act plan can result in DOL or Workers' Compensation Board investigations, back-pay, and civil penalties.
