Relates to the definition of a day student for the purposes of employment
This bill (A 1700) amends New York Labor Law to clarify the definition of a "day student" for employment purposes. It specifies that employment does not include work performed during regular school hours by students in elementary or secondary school who are in regular attendance. The change removes outdated language ("during the day time") and explicitly states this exclusion applies to part-time student workers. This definition directly affects students working part-time jobs during school hours, clarifying they are not covered under certain labor law provisions related to "day student" employment. The amendment takes effect immediately upon enactment.
