Grand Street Dems supports the “No More 24” Home Attendant Bill (Int #0175) introduced to the City Council by Councilmember Christopher Marte.
The Maximum Working Hours For Home Care Aides bill would set the maximum working hours that an employer may assign to a home care aide. The hours would be limited to 12 hours for any one shift, or within any 24 hours period, and 50 hours within a week. A home care aide could be assigned additional hours in the event of an emergency.

Resolution adopted August 11, 2022.
