A 3340 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes Employment Application Registry database in Division of State Police.

This bill creates a centralized database managed by the New Jersey State Police for law enforcement job applicants. It requires all state law enforcement agencies to collect and report applicant details - including identity, position sought, employment offer status, and reasons for denial (such as positive drug test results in the Central Drug Registry) - to this confidential database. Agencies must consult the database before making job offers, and the information will remain private, not accessible to the public. The Attorney General will establish guidelines for database operations, including disqualification standards and privacy procedures.
