In New York State, a registered voter is entitled to at least 4 consecutive hours outside their scheduled working hours to vote. If the employee does not have 4 consecutive hours, the employee can take time off work to vote on election day without loss of pay for up to two hours.

The employee can request time off for voting only at the beginning or end of their working shift, as the employer may designate, unless otherwise mutually agreed.

Employees who require working time off to vote should notify their employer with at least 2 business days and at most 10 days advance notice to the employer.

You may consult the New York State Law regarding this matter here.
