Bill Summary

Revises law concerning family leave to extend protection by reducing employee threshold from 30 employees to 15 employees in definition of employer.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing New Jersey law concerning family leave to expand its protections by lowering the minimum number of employees an employer must have to be covered by the law from 30 to 15. This change means that more businesses, specifically those with 15 to 29 employees, will now be required to offer family leave benefits to their employees, thereby extending protections to a larger segment of the workforce. The bill also makes technical adjustments to provisions related to the restoration of employment after taking temporary disability or family temporary disability leave, clarifies the interplay between different types of leave, and specifies that the changes will take effect six months after the bill is enacted.
