In plain language
Twenty-nine words settling a question that arises at the worst possible time. Where an employee covered by this title dies with accumulated annual vacation leave, the estate is paid a sum equal to the compensation for that leave. No discretion, no application process in the statute, and no reduction. Accrued vacation is treated as earned compensation rather than as a benefit that lapses.
Written by the NJ Civil Service Navigator editorial team from the text of this section. The statute itself is below, unabridged.
Current through the close of the 221st Legislature (L. 2025, c. 346). What that means
Enacted by L. 1986, c. 112. Never amended since.
A New Jersey statute changes only when the Legislature amends it, so a section untouched since its last amendment is settled rather than out of date.
