Controversial New Jersey temp staffing bill sees third delay (New Jersey Monitor)

December 20, 2022

A New Jersey state bill that aims to add new regulations covering temporary workers failed to get a New Jersey Senate vote for the third time, the New Jersey Monitor reported. The legislation was pulled from consideration in the Senate on Monday when it became clear it did not have enough votes to pass. The bill’s sponsor, Sen. Joe Cryan, pledged to workers and their advocates that it would get the 21 votes needed for passage. The controversial New Jersey bill would require temporary staffing firm employees to receive equal pay to directly employed workers, among other changes.
