BALCONY Supports a Level Playing Field for NY State Worker’s Compensation

February 27th, 2007

Statement by Bruce E. Ventimiglia, Co- Chair BALCONY,
The Business and Labor Coalition of New York
Re: Workers’ Compensation Reform

“The proposed reform of New York State’s Workers’ Compensation law which requires that business provide coverage for all workers is a positive step in the right direction toward leveling the playing field. As a businessman, I am well aware that the under-reporting of workers gives companies an unfair advantage over those who fully comply with the law. This Workers’ Compensation reform plan clearly shows that business and labor can find common ground to strengthen our economy and provide a better workplace for our workers.”
