Gov. Andrew Cuomo says 75 percent of the workforce must stay home and mortgage payments will be waived for 90 days.
NEW YORK, NY — Three-fourths of non-essential New York employees will be told to work from home, and Gov. Andrew Cuomo said mortgage payments will be waived for 90 days for those with financial hardships as the state ramps up measures to mitigate the health and economic impacts of the new coronavirus. Cuomo announced the latest in a series of drastic measures Thursday, adding that overdraft fees on ATMs and credit cards will also be waived.
Essential services include industries such as shipping, media, warehousing, grocery and food production, pharmacies, health care providers, utilities, banks and related financial institutions, as well as other industries critical to the supply chain.
