Does Tilt support New Jersey's paid sick and safe time law?
Here's how sick and safe time works outside of Tilt
Quick answer
The New Jersey sick and safe leave law requires covered employers to provide paid sick and safe time to eligible employees. Tilt generally does not support time taken under this law, since it functions more like PTO than a formal leave.
Who this applies to / Prerequisites
- Employers and employees in New Jersey covered by the state's sick and safe leave law.
Key facts
- New Jersey's sick and safe leave law requires covered employers to provide paid sick and safe time to eligible employees.
- Programs like this typically require employers to offer 5–10 sick and/or safe days, often with accrual and carryover provisions, functioning more like PTO than a formal leave.
- Tilt manages disability accommodation laws and pregnancy accommodation laws at the district and federal level separately — contact your Leave Success Manager with questions about those.
What if it doesn't work
- I'm not sure whether my absence should go through Tilt or my company's sick time system: Most employers manage this time within their existing time and attendance systems rather than through a Tilt leave process — contact your Leave Success Manager for guidance.
- If none of these apply, contact your Leave Success Manager (employees) or Customer Success Manager (HR teams).
