A 1942 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides credits against corporation business and gross income taxes for certain employers that invest in human capital.

This bill (A 1942) provides tax credits to small New Jersey businesses that invest in employee job training. Qualified employers (businesses with under $2.5 million annual revenue, operating in NJ for fewer than 10 years, and employing NJ workers) can claim a 10% credit on training costs, up to $2,000 per employee annually. The credit applies to both corporation business tax and gross income tax, requires training to lead to industry-recognized credentials, and can be claimed for a maximum of five years. It does not reduce tax liability below the statutory minimum or zero.
