Under the Key to NYC city code requirement, all customers 12 years and older must show proof of at least one dose of the COVID vaccination if they are to enter indoor dining, fitness, or entertainment. Similarly, all staff and employees must do the same.
As a result, many restaurants, in fear of city inspectors and potential fines, are struggling to maintain a full-time staff, in which some employees refuse to comply with the vaccine mandate.
As Gennady Litvin of Moshes Law P.C. mentioned to Katie Vasquez of News12 Brooklyn, restaurants can put such employees on unpaid leave without termination.
Business owners want to surround themselves with talented employees. In addition to a thorough vetting process to find the best candidates, employers need to look at employment agreements to close the deal.
Adding employees under employment-at-will agreements or signing them to contracts can cause your business to be viewed differently by potential employees, and potentially lead to legal ramifications down the road.

Walking into an open house that looks like a page from your favorite shelter magazine can be comforting, even inspiring. It’s easy to see how much potential the home has with decor that’s color-coordinated and perfectly styled. You might even start to visualize your own furniture—and family members—in each room!
But while a staged home can accentuate a property’s best features, it can also be used to hide some trouble spots.
A landmarked, 10-bedroom Brooklyn mansion has set the record for most expensive property ever sold in Bed-Stuy — going for $6.275 million.

Renting a new apartment can be an exciting experience. However, it can also become incredibly stressful — especially when there’s landlord drama involved. Whether you like it, one of your landlord’s goals is to make money. Unfortunately, in some cases, that means he or she might engage in illegal activities.

At first, we thought it was just the “casting couch,” where creepy casting directors or producers would ask aspiring actors for sexual favors in exchange for granting them a coveted role in a movie or TV show.
But sexual harassment isn’t limited to Hollywood, as we now know. It can happen whenever there’s an imbalance of power, such as in an employer-employee relationship … or a landlord-tenant one.
The world has changed, where women once feared to expose male bosses who engaged in discrimination due to gender or who forced female employees to engage in sex in exchange for promotions, now women are speaking up and men are afraid. How can both men and women interact effectively in this changed environment without creating an atmosphere of fear? Is it really possible to create a workplace free of sexual harassment and improper conduct? What are employees’ and their managers’ rights under the law. We discuss all of these questions in this week’s program, Making the Workplace Free From Sexual Harassment & Improper Conduct.
