Expands definition of wages to include compensation not solely at employer's discretion and mandates employer notices.

This bill amends the New York labor law to redefine "wages" to include any compensation not payable solely at the employer's discretion. It also requires employers to notify employees in writing of any changes to wage information at least seven days prior to the change, unless the change is reflected on the wage statement. The bill applies to all actions filed on or after its effective date.
