Gloucester Township Updates Personnel Policies to Include Pregnant Workers Fairness Act
- Meeting Overview:
The Gloucester Township Council meeting focused on updating the personnel policy to reflect new legislative requirements. The council unanimously approved amendments to Chapter 5 of the township’s code, incorporating the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, clarifying language related to sick cap payouts for employees hired after May 21, 2010, and updating policies on computer and internet usage. These changes aim to enhance workplace protections and clarify existing protocols for township employees.
In other significant agenda items, the council passed a resolution authorizing budget transfers within the 2025 general fund. Another resolution involved finalizing the dissolution of the Gloucester Township Municipal Utilities Authority, which included terminating existing bonds and reallocating any remaining funds.
The meeting also served as a forum for public engagement, though the first public comment session saw no participation. However, during the second public comment, resident Janine Powers from Sicklerville expressed her appreciation for the township and cited the area’s school system as a key reason for relocating her family to Gloucester Township.
