BILL NUMBER: S302 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the labor law, in relation to excluding certain agricultural labor from coverage under the provision of the unemployment insurance law PURPOSE : To exempt employers of alien agricultural labor from paying unemployment insurance on those workers. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS : Section 1- subdivision 2 of section 564 of the labor law is renumbered subdivision 3 and a new subdivision 2 is added to exclude from the term "employment" an individual who is an alien admitted to the United States to perform agricultural labor. This will conform New York State statute to sections 214(c) and 101 (a)(15)(H) of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act if they are excluded from the definition of employment in section 3306(c) of the Federal Unemployment Tax Act. Section 2 - contains the effective date. JUSTIFICATION : This bill would rectify an inequity in the New York State Labor Law.
