In June, the NJ Senate passed legislation protecting temporary workers from abusive employers but, due to a clerical error, they voted on the wrong version of the bill. On Monday, the state Senate will convene for a rare August session to vote once again.

, requires temp agencies to tell their workers what they are getting paid, where they will work, and the name of the temp agency. Some of these agencies operate out of nameless, nondescript buildings or don’t include their names on the paychecks they hand workers, making it difficult to file any formal complaint with state regulators, workers say.

Another provision would stop temp agencies from charging temp workers for rides to and from work sites, which Kimmel estimates costs $2,000 a year, and often means workers don’t earn minimum wage after accounting for those deductions. Temp agencies will also have to itemize any paycheck deductions.. The bill specifically lays out a maximum allowance of one seat and one seatbelt per person.
