New Jersey A3638 provides family leave for employees to attend their child's school events and establishes tax credits for employers offering this.

New Jersey A3638 establishes a program allowing employers to offer up to two full workdays of paid family leave for employees to attend school-related events of their children. Employers who provide this leave are eligible for tax credits to offset the cost of wages paid during the leave. The tax credits can be applied against either the corporation business tax or the gross income tax, depending on the employer's tax liability. The combined value of all tax credits approved annually is capped at $10,000,000.
