A 5002 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Establishes a small business tax credit for salary and wages paid to employees for time spent at sexual harassment prevention training

This bill creates a tax credit for small businesses (50 or fewer employees) that pay wages to staff attending required sexual harassment prevention training. Businesses can claim a credit equal to 50% of wages paid for training time, capped at $50 per employee per year. Unused credit can be carried forward for up to five years to offset future tax liability. The credit applies to taxable years beginning January 1, 2026, and covers only one training session per employee annually.
