🛍️ Big news for New York retail workers & business owners: The new Retail Worker Safety Act is now in effect, requiring stores with 10 or more employees to implement violence prevention plans, train workers in de-escalation, and even run active-shooter drills. And by 2027, large employers of 500 or more will need to provide silent response buttons to discreetly call for help in emergencies. This law is about making sure everyone in retail spaces feels safer and more supported.
