New Jersey is an “employee at will” state, meaning that an employer or employee may terminate the relationship at any time, without any reason, and without cause. However, the State of New Jersey and the Federal government have enacted numerous employment and labor laws which are intended to protect workers from unfair treatment or unsafe working conditions. New Jersey put in place three main employment laws to prevent harassment, discrimination, retaliation and to make sure that employees receive their fair wages. These New Jersey employment and labor laws include the Law Against Discrimination, the Conscientious Employee Protection Act and the New Jersey Wage and Hour Regulation. Employment and labor law actions involve very complex areas of litigation, and any person who believes they may have a cause of action against their employer should immediately seek advice from an attorney.
