New York A05411 invalidates any contractual provisions that waive or limit employee rights under labor and human rights laws.

New York A05411, known as the "anti-waiver of employment rights act," aims to invalidate any contractual provisions that waive or limit employees' substantive or procedural rights, remedies, or claims under labor and human rights laws. This includes provisions that shorten the statute of limitations for bringing claims. Exceptions are made for waivers mutually agreed upon in good faith dispute settlements or agreements following an employee's termination. The act also ensures that existing rights under other laws or collective bargaining agreements are not diminished.
