New Jersey's Minimum Wage is $7.25 an hour effective October 1, 2009. Except that full-time students may be employed by the college or university at which they are enrolled at not less than 85% of the effective minimum wage rate. Overtime is payable at the rate of 1.5 times the employee’s regular hourly rate for hours worked in excess of 40 in any week except where otherwise specifically provided by wage order.*
Exempt from the overtime entitlement are executive, administrative, and professional employees; employees engaged in labor on a farm or relative to raising or care of livestock; and employees of a common carrier of passengers by motorbus. Any employer who violates any provisions of the act will be guilty of a disorderly persons violation and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $1,000.*
The New Jersey Family Leave Act requires that most employees who have worked at least 1,000 hours during the previous 12 months for an employer which employs 50 or more employees are eligible to receive an unpaid leave of absence for a period not to exceed 12 weeks in a 24 month period. Leave under the NJ Family Leave Act may be taken in connection with the birth or adoption of a child, or for the care of a family member (child, parent, spouse or one partner in a civil union couple) with a serious health condition. Leave may not be taken under this act for the employee's own health condition.*
