This bill mandates the Department of Labor and Workforce Development (DOLWD) to identify and publicly post employment opportunities that have minimal barriers to entry for individuals re-entering the workforce after incarceration. The legislation emphasizes the importance of employment in reducing recidivism and facilitating successful reintegration into society for formerly incarcerated individuals. It acknowledges the various challenges these individuals face, including stigma and lack of education, which can hinder their ability to secure quality employment.

The DOLWD is tasked with continuously updating its website to provide information on job opportunities that are accessible to this demographic, thereby promoting economic productivity and prosperity for the entire state. The bill is set to take effect 90 days after its enactment.
