RIGHT TO KNOW SURVEY: Public employers in New Jersey must submit the annual Right to Know Survey (RTK) by July 15, 2025. It is recommended to complete the survey process before May to avoid delays. This requirement applies to all public workplaces, including government offices, schools, hospitals, and facilities handling hazardous substances. Manufacturing plants, laboratories, and other workplaces with potential chemical hazards must also comply. Failure to comply may result in a $1,000 penalty per facility. The New Jersey Worker and Community Right to Know Act ensures workplace safety and community awareness through this annual reporting.
