§ 471. Statement of legislative findings and declaration. It is hereby found and declared that New York state needs, as a matter of public policy, to create financial incentives for restaurants that have suffered economic harm as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic to expeditiously rehire workers and increase total employment. The restaurant return-to-work tax credit program is created to provide financial incentives to economically harmed restaurants to offer relief, expedite their hiring efforts, and reduce the duration and severity of the current economic difficulties.
