Increases the civil penalties for violations of child labor laws

This bill increases civil penalties for employers violating New York's child labor laws. Penalties rise to up to $3,000 for a first violation, $5,000 for a second, and $10,000 for third or subsequent violations. Crucially, if a minor is seriously injured (defined as permanent disability) or dies due to a violation, penalties triple to up to $30,000. The law directly affects employers who break child labor rules, with penalties paid to the state treasury.
