The bill amends Section 6 of P.L.2011, c.118 (C.34:8-68.1) to clarify the responsibilities and liabilities of client companies and employee leasing companies in New Jersey. It establishes that client companies are solely responsible for the quality, adequacy, and safety of goods or services produced, as well as for directing and supervising covered employees. Additionally, it specifies that client companies are not liable for the acts of employee leasing companies or covered employees acting under the leasing company's direction, and vice versa.

Furthermore, the bill states that covered employees will not be considered employees of the employee leasing company for certain liability insurance purposes, unless otherwise specified in an employee leasing agreement or other contracts. It also emphasizes that client companies are solely responsible for compliance with reporting requirements related to employment separations and liable for any penalties incurred for non-compliance. The act is set to take effect immediately upon approval.
