S 4557 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes that State police officers assigned to certain positions are not to be excluded from promotion.

This bill ensures New Jersey State Police officers assigned to temporary "detachment from service" positions (like temporary reassignments to different locations) or "confidential" roles (such as protective services for government branches) cannot be excluded from promotion or penalized for those assignments. It requires that time spent in these roles counts toward officers' eligibility for promotion, just like regular duty time. The bill directly affects State Police officers who may be temporarily reassigned or placed in sensitive positions. It clarifies that such assignments should not disadvantage officers in career advancement.
