AUBRY, BOYLAND, BRENNAN, CANESTRARI, COOK, CYMBROWITZ, GLICK, MAYER- SOHN, McENENY, MILLMAN, NOLAN, PHEFFER, ROBINSON, TOWNS, WEISENBERG, WRIGHT -- read once and referred to the Committee on Labor AN ACT to amend the labor law, in relation to establishing the summer employment program THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings and declaration. The legislature finds and declares that summer employment is an important formative activity for youth as they make transitions between middle and high school and into employment or post-secondary education. The legislature also finds that the summer months provide an ideal time frame during which youth can earn money and experience the world of work without placing limita- tions on the time that can, and should, be spent preparing for and attending classes. The legislature also finds that employment for youth can be valued not only in terms of the work performed but also in relation to the enhanced self-esteem of participants that comes, in part, from earned income. The legislature also finds that employment provides an opportunity for young people to gain interpersonal and employability skills, including team building, conflict resolution and problem solving, that are comple- mentary to academic activity and that will serve employers well in the future when they have a pool of job candidates who are experienced with workplace expectations. Therefore the legislature declares that a summer employment program would have significant benefit for both participants and employers. S 2. The labor law is amended by adding a new article 25-C to read as follows: EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted. LBD03592-02-1
