• Both county codes reach every employer. Suffolk’s Human Rights Law at County Code Chapter 528, section 528-7, adopts the Executive Law section 292 definition of employer – so no headcount minimum – and was amended on 23 June 2020 by Local Law 26-2020 to add gender identity and protective hairstyles. Nassau’s Title C-2, section 21-9.8 covers gender, race, color, creed, national origin, disability, age, religion, source of income and sexual orientation, also with no headcount threshold, and carries penalties of $5,000 to $10,000 payable to the aggrieved person plus a fine of $5,000 to $10,000 for a first offense under section 21-9.9.1. Above both sits Executive Law section 292(5), covering “all employers within the state.”
• Annual training, at every size, in the employee’s own language. Labor Law section 201-g requires interactive training annually and a written policy meeting or exceeding the state model – last updated August 2024 – with the policy and training material given in writing in English and in each employee’s identified primary language, at time of hiring and at every annual training. Required contents include examples of prohibited conduct, remedies, a standard complaint form, a timely and confidential investigation procedure, an anti-retaliation statement, and sanctions against supervisors who knowingly allow harassment.
• Leave and coverage from the first hire. Paid Family Leave covers most private employers with one or more employees, employee-funded at 0.432 percent of gross wages in 2026 capped at $411.91, for 12 weeks at 67 percent of average weekly wage up to $1,228.53. Twenty hours of paid prenatal personal leave apply with no size tier. Sick leave under Labor Law section 196-b runs 40 unpaid hours at four or fewer employees below $1 million in prior-year net income, 40 paid above it or from five employees, and 56 at 100 – with balances produced within three business days of an oral or written request. Labor Law section 206-c requires 30 minutes of paid break time per lactation need for up to three years after childbirth.
• And the paperwork duties are the same at ten people as at ten thousand. The section 195(1) hiring notice in English and the employee’s primary language, with a signed acknowledgment preserved six years; wage statements carrying the full section 195(3) list plus four extra items for non-exempt employees; payroll records kept not less than six years under section 195(4). And since 19 December 2025 the Trapped at Work Act has made employment promissory notes unenforceable, so training-cost repayment clauses in a small employer’s offer letter are dead letters.

We are not attorneys and this is not legal advice. Investigations, accommodation disputes and terminations belong with New York employment counsel.

Exceptional HR Solutions has one physical location, in Melissa, Texas, and no Long Island office. Fractional means a defined number of hours a month against a defined scope, delivered remotely – not a person who appears when something goes wrong. If you need someone reachable within the hour and physically present, particularly across a manufacturing or construction workforce, this will frustrate you and we would rather say so before you sign. Where it works well is an owner or finance lead currently carrying HR alongside their real job, in two counties that regulate them as though they had a department.
