Revises calculation of daily benefit rate under temporary disability and family temporary disability leave.
This bill clarifies the calculation method for daily benefits under New Jersey's temporary disability and family temporary disability leave programs. It specifies that the daily benefit amount equals the weekly benefit amount divided by seven, replacing the previous ambiguous phrasing. This change directly affects workers receiving these benefits by ensuring consistent daily payment calculations. The bill does not alter the underlying benefit rates (set at 85% of a worker's average weekly wage, capped at 70% of the statewide average) or maximum amounts.
