  state and federal law. 1. Every licensed  employment  agency  under  the
  jurisdiction  of  the  commissioner  and engaged in the job placement of
  domestic workers or household employees shall provide to each  applicant
  for employment as a domestic worker or household employee and his or her
  prospective  employer,  before  job  placement  is  arranged,  a written
  statement indicating the rights of such  worker  and  employee  and  the
  obligations  of  his or her employer under state and federal law. In the
  event any such licensed employment agency maintains a website, the  text
  of  such  written  statement  shall  also  be  provided  on the agency's
  website. The department shall promulgate rules and regulations detailing
  what information should be included  in  such  written  statement.  Such
  rules  and  regulations  shall require that such statement of rights and
  obligations embody provisions of state and federal laws that pertain  to
  domestic  workers  or  household  employees,  both  in their capacity as
  workers and employees in New York state and the  United  States  and  in
  their  capacity  specifically as domestic workers or household employees
  in New York state and the United States. Such statement  of  rights  and
  obligations  shall include, but not be limited to, a general description
  of employee rights and employer obligations pursuant to  laws  regarding
  minimum  wage,  overtime  and  hours  of  work,  record  keeping, social
  security payments, unemployment insurance coverage, disability insurance
  coverage and workers' compensation.  Every  licensed  employment  agency
  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the commissioner and to which this article
  applies shall certify  that  the  written  statement  required  by  this
  subdivision  conforms  to  rules  and  regulations  promulgated  by  the
  department and shall file a copy of  such  written  statement  with  the
  department.
    2.  Every  employment  agency engaged in the job placement of domestic
  workers or household employees shall keep on file in its principal place
  of business for a period of three  years  a  statement,  signed  by  the
  employer  of a domestic worker or household employee whom the employment
  agency has placed with such employer, indicating that the  employer  has
  read  and  understands the statement of rights and obligations he or she
  received pursuant to subdivision one of this section.
