A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the City of New York, in relation to displaced building service workers.

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

Section 1. Declaration of Legislative Findings and Intent. The effects of September 11 and the deepening recession have been devastating for low income New Yorkers. The volatility of the real estate industry coupled with new trends in the service economy are undermining stable employment relationships and creating a drain on an already over-burdened social service system. At a time of great uncertainty, it is the policy of the City to promote stability in employment for building service workers, which will reduce the need for social services resulting from unemployment, and promote stability in the service industry.
