Program
Register at: https://www.njlera.org
Please join the N.J. Chapter of LERA on February 11th as we welcome the N.J. Commissioner of Labor, Robert Asaro-Angelo. The event will focus on the current debate over independent contractor classification, with particular attention to the ABC test. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in dialogue regarding enforcement, impact on workers, employers, and specific industries. The evening’s focus is to bring a clearer understanding of the ABC test as well as a better grasp of the balance between worker protections and economic competitiveness.

Membership
If you are not a NJ LERA Chapter member (which is different from the National LERA membership), we encourage you to join. If you are a member, we encourage you to renew when your membership expires. We have dropped the price to attend meetings for members to $60. The non-member price remains the same at $75. We are also working on some website enhancements to make membership in NJ LERA even more valuable. Announcements about those will be forthcoming.
We are looking forward to seeing you on November 17, 2025.
Respectfully,
NJ LERA Board
