Relates to requiring the department of labor to conduct a study on the impact of job automation
This bill requires New York's Department of Labor to study how job automation impacts the state's workforce. The study must analyze technology trends, occupations at risk of job loss, regional economic effects, and impacts on different worker groups (including age, race, and income), plus propose retraining strategies. The Department must publish a final report to state leaders by December 31, 2026. The bill expires January 1, 2027, making it a time-limited study mandate with no immediate policy changes.
