2006 New York Code - Wearing Industry Badges, Or Other Insignia Of Identification By Unauthorized Persons.

 
    § 140. Wearing industry badges, or other insignia of identification by
  unauthorized  persons.  An employer of labor may adopt a badge, or other
  insignia of identification, to be worn or displayed by the employees for
  the purpose of identification while upon the premises  of  the  employer
  and  may  post a notice of the adoption of such badge, or insignia, near
  the main entrance of such premises. Such employer may deposit  with  the
  department  of  labor  a  replica  of  such  badge or insignia, and such
  department shall, if such badge or insignia  be  distinctive,  issue  to
  such employer a certificate authorizing the use thereof for the purposes
  of this section. Any person who, after the approval and adoption of such
  badge,  or  insignia,  without  authority  or permission of the employer
  adopting the same, wilfully wears such badge or displays such  insignia,
  or  any  facsimile  or any imitation thereof, or uses the same to obtain
  admittance to or remain upon the premises of the employer, is guilty  of
  a misdemeanor.
