Requires employers to include in job posting whether posting is for existing position and sets additional job posting requirements.
S 3509 requires New Jersey employers to clearly state in all public job postings whether the position is for an existing vacancy and provide an estimated timeframe for filling it. Employers must remove filled position postings within two weeks or notify third-party job boards to do so, and must give applicants a timely response about their application status after interviews. The bill also mandates the Department of Labor to audit compliance and imposes civil penalties of $1,000-$5,000 per violation for noncompliance. This directly affects employers and third-party job posting platforms in New Jersey.
