Dear HR Executive,
Toe the line on federal employment law, and New York law could still trip you up:
- Allow managers to yell at employees? A New York jury may find you guilty of inflicting emotional distress.
- Tolerate safety violations? Injured employees can sue for millions – even if they already collected workers' comp benefits.
- Fail to discipline correctly? If the employee later commits criminal misdeeds, you can face a huge negligent-supervision lawsuit.
There's a dark side to doing business in the Empire State. It's the laws that disgruntled employees and their big-shot lawyers use to get even with employers. Plus, New York jurors are famously generous to fired employees. And New York lawyers are notorious for using state laws to sue employers in all kinds of creative ways – even if the employer complies perfectly with federal law.
Make even one little employment law mistake, and your organization could be making the evening news and every newspaper for miles around.
Here’s why: Attorneys used to be satisfied with suing employers under well-defined federal laws like the ADA, FLSA and the FMLA. But Congress cut the amount of money employees could win in federal cases (and that cut the attorney’s share).
So, to make a bigger haul, lawyers are coming after
New York employers through state and even local laws.

The bad news: Those lawyers can use a mountain of laws against you – with absolutely NO limit on how much a generous jury can award to disgruntled employees. Worse yet: Today’s litigious workers and super-aggressive lawyers aren’t just going after companies – they’re also suing supervisors, managers and HR professionals personally.
That means your bank account, your home and everything else you’ve
worked so hard for is at risk every time you make a decision at work.
