Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday signed a series of bills that aims to ensure equality for women in the workplace and provide stronger laws for victims of domestic violence.

The package of eight bills was part of the governor’s Women’s Equality Act first introduced in 2013 that ultimately was passed piecemeal by the Legislature this year after a component to strengthen abortion rights was not approved.

The bills include steps to fight human trafficking, ensure equal pay for equal work, combat sexual harassment in the workplace and curb gender discrimination in employment, housing and credit decisions. Other laws will improve work accommodations for pregnant women and bolster laws to protect domestic-violence victims.
