Author: ADP Admin/Monday, April 3, 2023/Categories: Compliance Corner , State Compliance Update, New York

New York has enacted legislation (Assembly Bill 6328) that prohibits employers from discriminating against employees based on citizenship or immigration status. Assembly Bill 6328 is effective immediately.

The details

New York State's Human Rights Law (NYSHRL) prohibits employers with four or more employees from discriminating against individuals based on race, creed and national origin, among other characteristics. New York State and New York City had also previously enacted legislation and guidance expanding immigrant protections.

Assembly Bill 6328

Effective immediately, covered employers are now also prohibited from discriminating against individuals based on the following:

  • The citizenship of any person; or
  • The immigration status of any person who is not a citizen of the United States.

Next steps

New York State employers should review their policies and practices to ensure compliance with the expanded protections under the law.
