Bill overview
This bill would require New Jersey employers to create workplace policies that give employees the ‘right to disconnect’ from work-related communications during their nonworking hours. It defines ‘nonworking hours’ and establishes a process for employees to file complaints if their employer violates this right, potentially resulting in a fine. The bill also clarifies that this right doesn’t diminish existing worker protections or collective bargaining agreements.
