S 704 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Amends current child labor laws to protect minor working as vlogger in certain circumstances.

This bill (S 704) amends New Jersey's child labor laws to create an exemption for minors under 16 working as vloggers. It allows minors to work as vloggers - defined as creating video content featuring a minor for compensation on online platforms - without being subject to standard child labor restrictions, provided their caregiver or family member also complies with specific requirements (detailed in pending sections). The exemption specifically applies to minors working in this capacity under the bill's defined conditions. The bill was withdrawn after being approved as part of P.L.2025, c.355, meaning it became law through another legislative action.
