In December 2012, bills known as the “NJ SAFE Act” (S2177 and A2919) were amended by the House and Senate. Slightly revised from the versions discussed in prior issues of the New Jersey eAuthority (December 2012 and October 2012), the amended bills add that an employee may elect, or an employer may require an employee, to use any of the employee’s accrued paid vacation leave, personal time, or medical or sick leave during any part of the 20-day period of unpaid leave provided by the bill.
