This bill amends the "New Jersey State Wage and Hour Law," P.L.1966, c.113 (C.34:11-56a et seq.), to provide that no State or federal law establishing a minimum standard regarding wages or other terms and conditions of employment, including the "New Jersey State Wage and Hour Law" itself, shall be construed as preventing a political subdivision of the State from adopting an ordinance, resolution, regulation, rule, requirement or policy establishing and enforcing a wage or other standard which is higher than any minimum standard set by the State or federal law or otherwise provides greater protections or rights to employees, unless the State or federal law expressly prohibits the subdivision from adopting the ordinance, resolution, regulation, rule, requirement or policy.
