A 5374 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes "State Government Employee-Driven Efficiency Initiative."

This bill establishes a formal program allowing state employees to anonymously report perceived waste, fraud, or inefficiency in state government operations to the State Comptroller. Employees who submit validated reports receive a financial incentive equal to 5% of the savings generated (with a minimum $500 payment) once corrective plans are implemented. The initiative requires state agencies to provide a dedicated online or printable form for reporting, with a prominently linked form on all agency websites. It creates a structured process for investigating reports and implementing cost-saving measures, directly affecting state employees and departments.
