Please note that effective December 8, 2025, New Jersey employers must report all employee separations electronically through the Employer Access portal. This requirement applies to all separations regardless of reason: layoffs, terminations, resignations, or retirements. This applies to any business whose employee is entitled to unemployment benefits in New Jersey.
Links to register or access the portal are found here.
Codes to access the portal should have been mailed to employers some time ago, but a follow up mailing on the subject is expected to be issued this month. While fines can be issued for failure to abide by these new rules, it is our understanding that the Department of Labor intends to give employers time to adjust to the new rule before taking punitive action.
If you are a New Jersey employer and would like additional guidance on complying with this law, please contact Ari Burd, Jeri Abrams, Jay Becker or Nicholas Rollo in the GH&C Labor Employment Law Group.
