AI Summary

  • Requires New York City to provide an "excess differential offset" payment to paraprofessionals and substitute paraprofessionals employed by the Board of Education, effective for fiscal years beginning July 1, 2025

  • Calculates the offset based on the widening salary gap between the highest-paid principals and lowest-paid paraprofessionals compared to 20 years prior

  • Payment amount is determined by multiplying the excess differential (divided by 185 school days) by the number of days the paraprofessional worked during the fiscal year

  • Offset payments only apply in years where the salary gap has grown beyond the baseline from 20 years earlier (when "excess differential" is greater than zero)

  • Specifies that the offset payment is not considered salary, wages, or a term of employment under civil service law

Legislative Description

Provides that for each fiscal year commencing on or after July 1, 2025, the city of New York shall provide an excess differential offset to each person who was employed by the board of education as a paraprofessional for all or part of such year.
