Legislation enacted in 2022 requires employers to submit employee separation information to the NJ Department of Labor and Workforce Development within 7 days of a worker’s separation. The Department’s online Employer Response Portal went live in December 2025 and is now available for reporting.
Employers must report separations for any reason, regardless of whether the employee is expected to file for unemployment benefits. This online reporting requirement is in addition to the existing obligation to provide each separated employee with Form BC-10.
