Pay is late every single week, sometimes checks bounce. What are my rights? (NY)

I'm getting so fed tf up with my job. Week after week after week it's “oh, checks are late this week because the payroll company did blah blah blah” and just… I don't care? Give me my money and give it to me now? They always come up with the money within 3 to 4 days, but that's not the point. Are they just ALLOWED to be late absolutely every single week? In addition to that, I've had 2 checks bounce in the past year. They eventually come up with the money, but now my bank holds all checks for a week going forward, no matter who it's from. Meanwhile, to the best of my knowledge, the company I work for has faced zero consequences. Googling the matter doesn't help, because Google hides results that give you information on the laws that apply to businesses.
