Permits certain State employees to receive unpaid and paid leave to be census enumerators.
This bill allows up to five state employees per agency to take leave to work as census enumerators during the federal decennial census. Eligible employees can receive up to 10 paid workdays and 10 additional unpaid workdays during the census year, upon request and agency approval. It applies to employees in New Jersey's Executive Branch departments, divisions, boards, or independent agencies. The policy ensures state workers can participate in census outreach without losing pay for the first 10 days of their census duties.
