Your Voice Matters: Help Shape the Future of Independent Contracting in NJ
The New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development (NJDOL) has proposed new rules that could significantly impact how businesses classify independent contractors under the ABC test. These rules aim to formalize how the NJDOL interprets and enforces worker classification, potentially expanding contractor claims for benefits like unemployment insurance, overtime, and paid leave.
Now is the time to weigh in. The public comment period has been extended to August 6, 2025, giving you a critical opportunity to share how these changes could affect your business. NJ's regulatory process requires NJDOL to carefully weigh the anticipated benefits of any proposed rule against the real-world impacts it may have on all stakeholders large and small. We’re asking you to complete a brief survey and join a roundtable discussion with New Jersey employers. Your insights will help inform our response to the NJDOL and ensure your voice is heard.
