New Jersey bill A4487 prohibits workplace discrimination based on menstruation, perimenopause, and menopause.

New Jersey bill A4487 amends the "Law Against Discrimination" to make it an unlawful employment practice for employers to discriminate against employees based on menstruation, perimenopause, or menopause if these conditions substantially interfere with job performance. Employers must provide reasonable accommodations, such as bathroom breaks and modified work schedules, for employees affected by these conditions. The bill also prohibits employers from penalizing employees for discussing or seeking advice about workplace discrimination.
