Assembly Resolution No. 1005

BY: M. of A. Jackson

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 March 6, 2026, as Employee Appreciation Day in the
 State of New York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body that those
employees who faithfully serve the needs of the employer and the local
community with the utmost diligence and professionalism, profoundly
strengthen our shared commitment to economic and community life; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 6, 2026, as Employee
Appreciation Day in the State of New York, in conjunction with the
observance of National Employee Appreciation Day; and

 WHEREAS, Observed annually on the first Friday in March, National
Employee Appreciation Day was created as a way of focusing the attention
of all employers, in all industries, on employee recognition; an
employee's recognition and appreciation are both known as key
motivational factors in the workplace; and

 WHEREAS, National Employee Appreciation Day reminds managers that
strong employer-employee relations are at the core of any truly
successful business; having a strong relationship with your employees is
an integral part of being a manager, and appreciating their efforts can
go a long way towards making workers feel valued; and

 WHEREAS, The American labor movement has its origins in the earliest
years of the republic when artisans banded together to maintain wage
levels; the earliest strike in the United States happened in 1768, when
New York tailors stood their ground against wage reductions; after that,
American craftsmen started organizing guilds and unions to protect wages
and benefits for their respective trades, bringing on the beginning of
American trade unionism; and

 WHEREAS, On Employee Appreciation Day, businesses and organizations
plan celebrations across the country recognizing the achievements and
contributions of their employees; and

 WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to help increase
awareness of initiatives which affect the lives of citizens of New York
State; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 6, 2026, as Employee
Appreciation Day in the State of New York; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
