Bill Summary
Under current law, a public employer provides a paid leave of absence for federal active duty to public employees who are members of the Reserves of the United States military, including the National Guard of other states. Current law requires the employer to provide paid leave for 30 work days per year. Leave after 30 work days is provided without pay. This bill entitles a public employee who is a member of the Reserves of the United States military, including the National Guard of other states, to 90 work days of paid leave for federal active duty. Leave after 90 work days will be provided without pay.
AI Summary
This bill increases the number of paid work days public employees in New Jersey can take off for federal active duty as members of the United States Reserves or National Guard from 30 to 90 days per calendar year, meaning that any paid leave beyond 90 days will be without pay but without loss of time from their employment.
