Requires that a replacement worker is assumed to be permanent unless the employer certifies in writing that the claimant will be permitted to return to his or her prior position upon conclusion of the dispute (Sec. 43:21-5).
Requires that the claimant be entitled to recover any benefits lost as a result of the 30 day waiting period if the employer does not permit the claimant to return to work (Sec. 43:21-5).
Authorizes the Department of Labor and Workforce Development to impose a penalty on the employer of up to $750 per employee per week of lost benefits if it does not allow the claimant to return to work (Sec. 43:21-5).
