New JerseyBill would clarify which sites must post human trafficking signs
New Jersey would clarify which businesses and transportation sites must post human trafficking hotline signs where practical.
What it does
Clarified rules would specify which airports and massage workplaces must display human trafficking signs where practical, including licensed airports that require landing permission.
Argument forNaming covered airports and massage workplaces could help operators understand whether the sign rules apply to their sites.
Argument againstClearer coverage could still leave operators unsure when to post signs, because the requirement applies only where practical.
More detail
Covered sites would display human trafficking signs where employees and the public can clearly see them. Coverage includes workplaces whose massage or bodywork employers must register and whose therapists must be licensed. It also includes licensed airports, even those requiring permission to land. Posting would be required only where practical. The changes would take effect immediately upon enactment.
