Bill overview
This bill proposes to extend bereavement leave in New Jersey to cover miscarriages and stillbirths. Currently, bereavement leave is available for the death of a child, but not for these specific circumstances. The bill would amend existing state law to include these events as qualifying reasons for family leave, providing grieving parents with additional time off. It also clarifies definitions related to ‘child’ and ‘family member’ within the context of leave eligibility.
