Provides for retained eligibility for members of NJ National Guard or reserve component called to active federal military service who met fire department maximum age requirement at closing date of civil service examination.

Summary

The bill lets New Jersey National Guard and reserve service members who are on a civil‑service competitive list and are deployed to federal active duty retain their eligibility to re‑enter the list using their original exam score. It also treats those who met the fire‑department age limit at the exam’s closing date as having met it when placed on a new list, mirroring an existing rule for police. This protects service members’ job prospects after deployment.
