I’m Dr. Helen Arteaga, a Queens native🗽y una ecuatoriana🇪🇨
In January, @nycmayor appointed me as Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services, tasking me with leading the largest public health and social services agencies in the nation.
I’ve dedicated my career to improving quality of care and increasing access to services for those in need. Now, I’m honored to continue that work at City Hall—and to ensure a dignified life for all those who call New York City home.
Deputy Mayor Julia Kerson and DEP Commissioner Lisa Garcia recently took a peek at the progress we’ve been making on City Water Tunnel Number 3, which is an EPIC investment in NYC’s public health, safety, and the FUTURE of our city! 🤩
Life happens. No one should have to choose between a paycheck and their family, their home, or their safety.
Local Law 145 expands NYC’s Protected Time Off so working people can use their time to care for a child or family member with a disability, attend housing or benefits hearings, respond to a public disaster, seek safety from workplace violence, and more.
But a law on paper means nothing without enforcement. That’s why we’re partnering with the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection to launch proactive compliance checks. If fewer than half a workplace’s employees haven’t used any paid time in the past year, that’s a red flag – and it will be investigated.
Workers fought hard for these rights. We’re going to make sure they can actually use them.
