New Jersey A1268 mandates an eligibility checklist and audit for certain public employees enrolled in the Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS).

New Jersey A1268 requires certifying officers to complete a certification checklist when enrolling public employees in the PERS who provide professional services. The checklist must verify that the employee is eligible and not an independent contractor. The bill also mandates the establishment of an audit program by the PERS board of trustees to continuously review public employers for eligible enrollments. Certifying officers are prohibited from seeking advice from the employee being enrolled.
