Bill > S2948

This bill amends existing New Jersey law to specify that only registered design professionals, which include architects and licensed professional engineers, or employees of certified fire escape contractors are authorized to install, service, repair, inspect, and maintain fire escapes. The bill also defines "fire escape contractor" as a person or business entity that undertakes such work and clarifies that these contractors must be licensed design professionals or employees with a certified fire escape contractor. This change aims to ensure that fire escape work is performed by qualified individuals, enhancing safety and compliance with building codes.
