2006 New York Code - Labor Requirements.

 
    §  152.  Labor requirements.   All contracts of an authority involving
  the employment, among others, of laborers, workmen or mechanics shall be
  in conformity with the provisions of article eight of the labor law, and
  such provisions shall be deemed terms of all such contracts; and for the
  purpose of obtaining the prevailing rate  of  wages  or  fees  for  such
  contracts,  the  authority  shall  proceed  in  the  same  manner as the
  municipality  in  which  the  authority  operates.  All  such  contracts
  involving  the  employment,  among  others,  of architects, draftsmen or
  technicians, whether or not working on the site of  the  project,  shall
  contain  a  provision requiring that the wages or fees prevailing in the
  municipality  shall  be  paid  to   such   architects,   draftsmen   and
  technicians;  and  for  the  purpose of obtaining the prevailing rate of
  wages or fees, the authority shall proceed in the  same  manner  as  the
  municipality  proceeds in obtaining the prevailing rate of wages or fees
  for laborers, workmen and mechanics; and the industrial commissioner  of
  the  state  or  the  municipal  comptroller,  as  the case may be, shall
  determine such prevailing rates of wages or fees upon application of  an
  authority  in  the same manner as provided by article eight of the labor
  law for laborers, workmen and mechanics. Employees  of  all  contractors
  and  subcontractors  employed under or by virtue of such contracts shall
  have  the  right  to  organize  and  to  bargain  collectively   through
  representatives of their own choosing.
