A 6214 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Allows political subdivisions of State to purchase unused sick leave from officer or employee under certain circumstances; prohibits authorizing special emergency appropriations for unused sick leave purchases.

This bill allows New Jersey municipalities and other local governments to purchase unused sick leave from their public employees (including elected officials) under specific rules. It limits purchases to 60% of the sick leave's value (based on the employee's annual pension base), caps yearly purchases at 120 hours per employee, and requires employees to retain at least 800 hours of unused sick leave after any purchase. The bill also prohibits using special emergency funds to finance these purchases. It applies to employees covered under New Jersey's Title 11A retirement system.
