Overview
This bill amends New Jersey law to expand family leave protections for employees. It reduces the number of employees an employer must have to be subject to the law’s reinstatement requirements from 30 to 5.

The bill also clarifies eligibility for leave and ensures employees can choose between earned sick leave and other leave types.
