Establishes "Business Growth Protection Act"; revises law concerning temporary help service firms and temporary laborers.
This bill establishes the "Business Growth Protection Act" to regulate temporary help service firms and protect temporary laborers in New Jersey. It requires temporary help service firms to obtain certification from the Division of Consumer Affairs, maintain detailed records of temporary labor assignments, and provide itemized wage statements showing the third party client's entry-level pay rate for similar positions. The law mandates that temporary laborers receive at least the third party client's entry-level wage rate for comparable work, revises surety bond requirements to be based on firm revenue (minimum $50,000, maximum $200,000), and provides protections against retaliation for workers exercising their rights. Violations may result in civil penalties up to $5,000 per violation.
