On June 1, 2025, New Jersey’s statewide pay transparency law (SB 2310) took effect. The law requires employers with 10 or more employees (over 20 calendar weeks) who operate or accept job applications in the state, including public entities such as state, county, or municipal governments to disclose pay and benefits details in job postings.
