Except as described in subsections a. and b. of this section, each Executive Branch agency that is a recipient of federal economic recovery funds pursuant to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 shall include in any contract, grant, or agreement funded in whole or in part with funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 a clause requiring subrecipients, contractors, subcontractors, local education agencies, and vendors to post all job openings created pursuant to the contract, grant, or agreement on the State's Job Bank at least 14 days before hiring is to commence. The clause shall state: “Since the funds supporting this contract, grant, or agreement are provided through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), the subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, local education agency, or vendor will post any jobs that it creates or seeks to fill as a result of this contract, grant, or agreement. The subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, local education agency, or vendor shall post jobs to the New Jersey State Job Bank by submitting a job order using the form available on the Internet, notwithstanding any other posting the subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, local education agency, or vendor might make. Any advertisements posted by the subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, local education agency, or vendor for positions pursuant to this contract, grant, or agreement must indicate that the position is funded with ARRA funds.”
a. Posting shall not be required when the employer intends to fill the job opening with a present employee, a laid-off former employee, or a job candidate from a previous recruitment, when pre-existing, legally binding collective bargaining agreements provide otherwise, or when an exception has been granted to the reporting agency by the Department of Labor and Workforce Development.
b. Nothing in this act, P.L.2009, c. 335 (C.52:40-1 et seq.), shall be interpreted to require the employment of apprentices if such employment may result in the displacement of journey workers employed by any employer, contractor or subcontractor.
