"We were shocked when the budget deal was announced last year that expected home healthcare aides...to pay for their increase in the minimum wage increase with a reduction of benefit," Connor Shaw, political director for Home Healthcare Workers of America, told the Post.
Last year in New York City, workers received an additional $4.09 per hour on top of their $17 hourly base wage. In 2024, the minimum wage increased by $1.55 an hour to $18.55, but the new deal decreased the wage supplement by the same amount.
