Requires preservation of employee benefits and contractual rights as condition of sale of Atlantic City International Airport.
This bill requires that if the South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) sells or leases the Atlantic City International Airport, the sale or lease agreement must preserve all existing employee benefits and rights. It directly affects SJTA employees whose jobs would transfer to a new owner, ensuring they retain pension credits, civil service status, and accrued benefits like sick leave and vacation time. The bill mandates that new agreements only replace current contracts after they expire or are mutually revised, and existing employee representatives must continue serving until employees elect new ones. This prevents any loss of benefits or status during ownership changes.
