Establishes a $500 threshold for wage overpayment recovery and requires notice to employees.

This bill amends the state finance law to set a minimum threshold of $500 for recovering overpayments of wages. It mandates that employees receive notice and an opportunity to respond before the state seeks recovery. Employees can choose to limit recovery to no more than 10% of their biweekly paycheck. The comptroller retains authority to collect any due amounts when an employee leaves service.
