Lois Law Firm — Mon, 20 Mar 2017 13:00:00 -0400

The New York Workers’ Compensation Board collects $3 Million per year in procedural penalties alone.

“What are the most common reasons employers/carriers are penalized in New York?”
“What are the exposures for non-coverage in New York?”
What other activity can draw a penalty, such as illegal employment?”
