Permits unpaid leave of absence for public employees to assist military or civilian government in Israel during Hamas War.

S 830 allows New Jersey public employees (including state workers, school staff, and local government employees) to take unpaid leave to assist Israel's military or civilian government during the Israel-Hamas conflict. Employees must provide documentation from Israeli authorities to their employer before approval, and the leave covers travel time plus the conflict's duration. Upon returning, employees retain their previous job title, pay, and benefits as if they had never left. The bill applies to all covered employees regardless of whether their employer has adopted specific leave policies (Title 11A). This policy change creates a formal process for public workers to volunteer in Israel's defense without losing their jobs.
