A4297

New Jersey A4297 revises reciprocity rules for elevator, escalator, and moving walkway mechanic's licenses.

New Jersey A4297 revises the rules concerning out-of-State reciprocity for elevator, escalator, and moving walkway mechanic's licenses. The bill allows the licensing board to grant licenses without examination to applicants with comparable licenses from other states, provided the domiciliary state's standards are equal to or comparable to those of New Jersey. This change removes the requirement of equal reciprocity, meaning New Jersey does not need to receive reciprocal treatment from other states to grant licenses. The act takes effect immediately.
