Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 11, June 3, 2024
Section 13:13-2.3 - Employment criteria
(a) It is an unlawful employment practice for any employer, employment agency or labor organization to make use of any employment test or other selection criterion that screens out or has the effect of screening out people with disabilities unless:
1. That test score or other selection criterion is shown to be job related for the position in question; and
2. Alternative job-related tests or criteria that do not screen out or have the effect of screening out fewer people with disabilities are not available.
(b) An employer, employment agency or labor organization shall select and administer tests concerning employment which accurately reflect, with the benefit of reasonable accommodation, the applicant's or employee's job skills, aptitude or competency, rather than reflecting the applicant's or employee's impaired sensory, manual or speaking skills (except where those skills are the factors that the test purports to measure, and are necessary to perform the essential functions of the job in question).
