Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file an employment claim in New York?
The time limit depends on the claim type. For discrimination under the New York State Human Rights Law, you have three years from the incident. For federal claims under Title VII, you have 300 days to file with the EEOC. For wage claims under New York Labor Law, the statute of limitations is generally six years.
Can I be fired for no reason in New York?
New York is an at-will employment state, meaning an employer can fire you for any reason or no reason, as long as it is not illegal. Illegal reasons include discrimination based on race, gender, age, or disability, or retaliation for reporting violations. A Rochester employment lawyer can help determine if your termination was unlawful.
Does New York law require paid sick leave for employees?
Yes, under the New York State Paid Sick Leave Law, most employees working in New York State earn at least one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked, up to 40 hours per year. Employers with fewer than five employees must provide unpaid sick leave. This law applies to all workers in Rochester.
