BILL NUMBER: S4336 Revised 2/10/17 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the workers' compensation law, in relation to the definition of "employer" for the purposes of disability benefits PURPOSE : For the purpose of disability benefits, this bill would amend the definition of "employer." SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS : Section 1 - Amends subdivision 4 of section 201 of the workers' compensation law, as added by chapter 600 of the laws of 1949. Section 2 - Effective date. JUSTIFICATION : There are a unique set of factors which make small businesses more vulnerable and disproportionately impacted by economic changes. This is why half of all small businesses (identified as those with 25 employees or less) do not survive beyond two years. This is the sound reasoning behind why small businesses are often times exempted from initiatives which would have less of an impact on larger businesses.
