A 2661 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Directs State Auditor to audit DOLWD Division of Unemployment Insurance.

This bill requires New Jersey's State Auditor to conduct a performance audit of the Division of Unemployment Insurance within the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. The audit will examine whether the division efficiently uses funds (both federal and state), has enough staff to meet legal requirements, processes applications effectively (especially during emergencies), and operates its IT systems cost-effectively. The State Auditor must submit a report to the Governor and Legislature within 90 days detailing findings and recommendations. This bill directly affects the Unemployment Insurance division's operations and oversight, without creating new benefits or eligibility rules.
