A 549 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes Employment Application Registry database in Division of State Police.

This bill requires New Jersey's law enforcement agencies to collect specific applicant data - including identity details, position sought, employment status, and disqualification reasons - and submit it to a confidential database maintained by the State Police. The database will include information like name, address, social security number, and whether an applicant was disqualified (e.g., due to a positive drug test in the Central Drug Registry). All agencies must consult this registry before making job offers to applicants. The Attorney General must issue guidelines for data collection, disqualification criteria, and database confidentiality, ensuring the registry remains non-public.
