Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a discrimination claim in New Jersey?

Can I be fired without cause in New Jersey?
New Jersey is an at-will employment state, meaning an employer can terminate you for any reason that is not illegal. However, termination cannot be based on discrimination, retaliation, or violation of a specific contract. An employment lawyer can help determine if your firing was unlawful.
Does New Jersey require employers to pay overtime?
Yes, under the New Jersey Wage and Hour Law, most employees must receive overtime pay at 1.5 times their regular rate for hours worked over 40 in a week. Some exemptions apply for salaried executive, administrative, and professional workers. Independent contractors are not covered.
