N.J.S.A. 11A:6-7 Leaves for part-time employees
Part-time employees shall receive proportionate vacation, sick and administrative leave.
In plain language
Ten words, and they do a lot of work. Part-time employees get vacation, sick and administrative leave in proportion to their hours. Not at the discretion of the employer, and not conditional on a contract providing it. Someone working half time earns half the entitlement the preceding sections set out, which makes those sections apply to a population they never mention.
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changes only when the Legislature amends it, so a section untouched since its last amendment is settled rather than out of date.
