Encourages local unit sharing of services; makes appropriations.

This bill requires local governments in New Jersey to create employment plans when sharing services (like waste management or IT) to protect workers' rights. It mandates that any job transfers or terminations due to shared service agreements must follow civil service rules, including terminal leave payments for affected employees and placement on special reemployment lists. The Civil Service Commission reviews these plans to ensure compliance, directly impacting local government employees in civil service positions and the municipalities entering shared service agreements. The bill also includes funding for these operational changes.
