NOTICE
TEMPORARY PAYROLL DEDUCTION JANUARY 1-JUNE 30, 1950 UNDER NEW
YORK STATE DISABILITY BENEFITS LAW
New York State Disability Benefits Law (chapter 600, Laws of 1949) provides that each employee of a covered employer shall make a contribution to establish a special fund, deposited with the New York State Commissioner of Taxation and Finance, for payment of weekly cash benefits to disabled unemployed workers during limited periods of temporary disability that start on and after July 1, 1950. The employer will deduct the contribution of his employees from wages paid during the first six months of 1950, and will pay an equal amount as the employer's own contribution in behalf of each of his employees. The contribution of each employee to this fund for the disabled unemployed is one tenth of one percent of the first $60 of his weekly wage, but his contribution will not be more than six cents a week or a maximum of $1.56 for the entire temporary six months contribution period. This temporary contribution will end on June 30, 1950. Further information about disability benefits to be provided under the law, and the permanent contributions for those benefits, will be given before July 1, 1950.
