NJ A5506

Client companies using employee leasing arrangements become solely responsible for reporting employee separations to unemployment authorities, rather than the employee leasing company

Client companies bear sole liability for any penalties resulting from failure to provide required information about employment separations

The bill amends the existing employee leasing law (P.L.2011, c.118) to clarify reporting obligations between client companies and professional employer organizations

Applies regardless of any other provisions in state unemployment compensation law (R.S.43:21-6 and R.S.43:21-16) that might otherwise assign these duties differently
