NJ S3057

Employers must provide at least two full remote work days per month to employees with qualifying menstrual disorders, including endometriosis, uterine fibroids, polycystic ovary syndrome, adenomyosis, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and dysmenorrhea.

Employers may require a medical provider's note to substantiate the employee's qualifying condition for remote work accommodation.

Employers are exempt from the requirement only if they can prove by a preponderance of evidence that remote work would create an undue hardship on business operations or that the employee cannot perform essential job duties remotely.

Employers cannot penalize employees in terms, conditions, or privileges of employment for requesting or using this remote work accommodation.

Civil penalties for violations range from up to $1,000 for the first offense, $5,000 for the second, and $10,000 for each subsequent violation, enforced by the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development.
