Title 11A · Chapter 6. Employee Leaves, Work Hours, and Career Development · Article 1

In plain language

Twenty-eight words pointing somewhere else entirely. Leaves of absence for police officer and firefighter titles are governed by the applicable provisions of Title 40A and by 11A:6-10. So for those titles this chapter is largely not the answer, and a question about a police officer's leave usually resolves in the municipal statutes rather than here. The cross-reference keeps convention attendance within this chapter for them.

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changes only when the Legislature amends it, so a section untouched since its last amendment is settled rather than out of date.

Reviewed as of July 28, 2026. Official text: njleg.state.nj.us.

Leaves of absence for police officer and fire fighter titles shall be governed by the applicable provisions of Title 40A of the New Jersey Statutes and N.J.S. 11A:6-10.
