Summary of differences between federal and state regulations

There is no one federal law that specifically addresses employment applications, although there are record retention guidelines under a variety of federal laws (see the Recordkeeping topic) and non-discrimination provisions for hiring in general (see the Discrimination topic). 

New Jersey law provides that it is unlawful discrimination for an employer to use any form of application for employment which expresses any discrimination in regard to an individual’s race, creed, color, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, domestic partnership status, affectional or sexual orientation, disability, nationality, sex, or liability of any applicant for employment for service in the Armed Forces of the United States, unless based on a bona fide occupational qualification. 

Salary history

State agencies and offices in New Jersey may not inquire about salary history from job applicants or their previous employers until after conditional offer of employment has been made.
