Bill overview
This bill would allow New Jersey State employees and students to take excused absences to observe Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. State employees would be granted one additional day of administrative leave per calendar year for absences related to these holidays, and school districts would be required to excuse student absences for the same reason. The bill ensures that these absences are recorded appropriately and do not affect students’ eligibility for awards or alternative testing opportunities.
