There were several amendments to New York’s Whistleblower law that went into effect on January 26, 2022.  The amendments provide greater protection for private-sector employees who report actions of their employer that they reasonably believe to be illegal or a danger to public health or safety. The New York State Department of Labor has released a model Notice of Employee Rights, Protections and Obligations Under Labor Law Section 740.  The notice includes the revised language from New York Labor Law § 740. Employers must post the notice in a conspicuous, easily accessible, and well-lighted place customarily frequented by employees and applicants for employment. It is advisable that this notice also be accessible electronically to employees who are working remotely.
