    This is not the best way to ask. Tell us what you specifically need to know and if someone has an answer they will help.

    Scott is correct. The law books fill a room and I never memorized much of what is in them. Detailed technical questions always were research by my office before we/I gave an answer.

    Do you mean minimum wage - which would be NYS, not NYC.

    "The General Industry Minimum Wage Act states that all employees in New York State, including most domestic workers, must be paid at least $7.15 per hour beginning January 1, 2007.

    The basic rate may be modified by certain requirements set under regulations known as “wage orders.” These provisions of the minimum wage law cover jobs in the restaurant, hotel, and building service industry, and miscellaneous industries and occupations. They set an hourly rate plus overtime and allowances in four General Industry Wage Orders, based on meals and lodging supplied by an employer.

    Some industries make allowances for tips, thus they set a lower hourly rate. For example, food service workers may earn $4.60 per hour because their total compensation includes expected tips. When required uniforms are maintained by the worker, certain allowances also apply. Other service workers have a minimum rate of $5.40 per hour. There are also allowances for meals and lodging supplied by an employer."

    Or do you mean something else - ?
