Benefits and pension arrangements are part of both the hiring process as well the retirement or termination process. The laws of the state of New Jersey regulate how employers may distribute health and retirement plans; beneficiaries and recipients of such plans may file their claims under such laws.

Additionally, employers in Edison are required to perform on any benefits that may have been promised to the employee in a contract when work began. The employer sometimes pays for benefit plans, but at times the employee must make a voluntary contribution. Additionally, some employees establish a requirement that employees work with them for a certain period of time before they are eligible for benefits.

What Employee Benefits are Protected by New Jersey law?

Those employers who provide medical plans for employees owe specific legal duties under New Jersey law to those they cover.

Some laws also permit employees who lost their jobs to continue receiving the health coverage they had with their prior employer while they seek new employment.
