S.2613

New Jersey S2613 revises law requiring school districts, charter schools, nonpublic schools, and contracted service providers to review employment.

New Jersey S2613 amends existing law to enhance the review process for prospective employees in school districts, charter schools, nonpublic schools, and contracted service providers. The bill mandates that applicants for positions involving regular contact with students provide prior written consent for a child abuse record information check. It removes the 20-year limit on the review of employment history and requires the Department of Children and Families to conduct a child abuse record information check for each applicant.
