Employees have gained new protections against Union impersonation, sudden construction job cancellations and restricted access to personnel files, under the three new Bills signed by the Governor. Said Hochul: \u201cNew York has the best Workforce in the Nation. Our Workers power our economy, build our communities and keep our State moving forward every single day. These common-sense laws will put money in Workers\u2019 pockets, safeguard their personal information and ensure that a hard day\u2019s work is met with a fair day\u2019s pay.\u201d The first Bill (A10835-A\/S9577-A) allows the Attorney General to seek damages of $1,000 per violation from individuals fraudulently presenting themselves as a Union Representative. This will protect Union Members\u2019 rights and prevent outside groups from deceptively collecting personal and protected information.<\/p>\n<p>To Continue Reading This Labor News Story, Go To: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.silive.com\/ny-state\/2026\/10\/new-york-workers-just-got-3-new-protections-heres-what-changed.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">N.Y.
