(Compl., ECF No. 1; Am. Compl., ECF No. 13.) By Report and Recommendation dated November 15, 2020, Magistrate Judge Steven I. Locke recommended that the Court deny Defendant’s motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint’s first cause of action seeking relief under New York Labor Law §191 (“Section 191″). (“R&R,” ECF No. 24.)

For the following reasons, Defendant’s objections are OVERRULED, the R&R is ADOPTED, and Defendant’s partial motion to dismiss is DENIED. BACKGROUND I.

Defendant employed Plaintiff as an hourly, manual worker from approximately September 2019 through February 26, 2020.
