Revises calculation of daily benefit rate under temporary disability and family temporary disability leave.

This bill changes how New Jersey temporary disability and family leave benefits are calculated for workers. Starting July 1, 2020, it increases the weekly benefit rate from two-thirds (66%) to 85% of an individual's average weekly wage, with a new cap of 70% of the statewide average wage (up from 53%). It also clarifies that daily benefits will be calculated based directly on the weekly rate, rather than using a one-seventh fraction. This directly affects workers in New Jersey who qualify for temporary disability or family leave benefits after the effective date. The change increases potential benefit amounts for eligible workers.
