A 1630 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Prohibits local government agency from employing person on paid leave from local government agency of another county or municipality.

This bill prohibits New Jersey local government agencies from hiring employees who are currently on paid leave from another local government agency in a different county or municipality. It directly affects local government employers and employees who might hold positions across multiple local governments. The law specifically bans full-time or part-time employment while an individual remains on paid leave from a comparable position elsewhere, aiming to prevent potential conflicts of interest under the Local Government Ethics Law.
