Date of Proposal:
November 6, 2006

Proposal Number:
PRN 2006-304

Proposal Summary:
The New Jersey Division on Civil Rights proposes to readopt, with amendments, its rules pertaining to the New Jersey Family Leave Act. The rules address implementation and enforcement of the Family Leave Act, which entitles most employees in the State to a maximum of 12 weeks of family leave from employment during a 24-month period to provide care needed for the birth or adoption of a child, or for the serious health condition of a child, parent or spouse. Upon readoption, the Division proposes amendments to make the rules more consistent with rules promulgated under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act, in order to simplify compliance for employers covered by both laws. The proposed readoption appears in the November 6, 2006 edition of the New Jersey Register.

Summary of Proposal:
A summary of the proposed readoption with amendments is posted on the New Jersey Division on Civil Rights Web site at: www.njcivilrights.org/proposed_rules.html


Public Comment:
Public comment on the proposed readoption will be accepted until January 5, 2007.
Please direct all comments to:

Gary LoCassio, Assistant Director
New Jersey Division on Civil Rights
140 East Front Street
P.O. Box 089
Trenton, New Jersey 08625-0089
