Permits paid leave by public officers and employees for inactive duty military training.
This bill extends paid leave for New Jersey public employees who serve in military reserves or the National Guard. It allows state, county, school district, and municipal workers to take paid leave for required inactive duty training (like regular drills) within existing annual limits: 30 work days for federal reserve members and 90 days for New Jersey National Guard members. The law maintains current pay protections but requires the state to reimburse local governments and school districts for any additional costs incurred. This change applies immediately to all affected public employees.
