Includes Stewart International Airport in the definition of covered airport location for the purposes of minimum wage rates
This bill amends New York's labor law to include Stewart International Airport in the list of "covered airport locations" where airport workers are entitled to minimum wage rates. It directly affects workers at Stewart International Airport who perform airline catering work, expanding their eligibility for minimum wage protections previously applied only at JFK and LaGuardia airports. The key mechanism is a simple definition change in Section 696-a of the labor law, adding Stewart to the existing list without altering wage rates or creating new requirements. The bill has no other provisions or impacts beyond this definitional update.
