New Jersey labor law defines these exemptions based on Executive, Administrative, or Professional status. Learn more here.

New Jersey Labor Law Poster Update

All businesses within the State of New Jersey must display the revised Wage and Hour Law Abstract and federal EEOC Know Your Rights: Workplace Discrimination is Illegal posters along with other state-mandated posting requirements where they are sufficiently accessible and viewable to all employees. This change has been reflected in our New Jersey & Federal Labor Law Poster and does require an immediate mandatory update. Failure to meet compliance requirements and display the updated poster could result in fines.
