At @NYSLabor, we encourage employers to invest in Registered Apprenticeships, and we’re leading by example. I had the chance to meet our first class of Registered Apprentices in our Division of Safety and Health (DOSH). What an impressive group! 👏

Due to bank closures on Monday, 10/12, for Columbus Day, there will be a one-day delay in benefit payment processing if you typically certify on Sunday or Monday. Check your NYSDOL account 1-2 days after certifying for benefits to confirm your payment was released.
