S 1690 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Revises hotel sanitization protocols to remove requirement that occupied guest rooms be cleaned and sanitized daily.

S 1690 removes a requirement from New Jersey's hotel sanitation rules that hotels must clean and sanitize occupied guest rooms daily, including changing towels, sheets, and pillowcases every day. This change directly affects all New Jersey hotels by eliminating a specific daily cleaning mandate for rooms where guests are currently staying. The bill deletes paragraph (4) from the existing law, which previously required this daily service, while keeping other sanitation protocols intact. The amendment simplifies the rules by allowing hotels to clean occupied rooms as needed rather than on a fixed daily schedule.
