Workers at the three major New York City airports will get a much-needed pay raise starting in January, New York and New Jersey Governors Kathy Hochul and Phil Murphy announced Tuesday.
Through a new initiative with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, thousands of employees at John F. Kennedy International, LaGuardia, and Newark Liberty International airports are set to receive annual wage increases linked to the regional cost of living, mirroring the minimum wage policies of New York and New Jersey.
