NJ temporary help service bonds.
$275 flat. Five minutes.

A New Jersey temporary help service firm posts a $1,000 bond with the Attorney General to secure compliance with the state’s rules. Three percent of $1,000 is below our floor, so the price is our $275 minimum — flat, the same for every firm, and there is no credit check on this bond.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

New Jersey treats temporary help services as regulated under the Consumer Fraud Act framework (N.J.S.A. 56:8-1.1), with the Division of Consumer Affairs’ Regulated Business Section overseeing the firms. A temporary help service firm supplies its own employees to clients on a temporary basis.

Each firm must, at its initial notification to the Attorney General and annually thereafter, post a $1,000 bond to secure compliance with the applicable rules. The bond is a small compliance guarantee standing behind the firm’s obligations to the state and to the people it serves.

The Attorney General may waive the bond for a firm with a net worth of $100,000 or more — so if your firm qualifies for the waiver, you may not need to post it at all. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the NJ temporary help service bond? +
The price is $275 — our minimum premium. The bond amount is $1,000, and 3% of that is only $30, which falls below our $275 floor, so you pay the minimum. It’s the same for every firm.
Do I pay the $1,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $1,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Can the bond be waived? +
Yes — the Attorney General may waive the $1,000 bond for a temporary help service firm with a net worth of $100,000 or more. If your firm qualifies, confirm the waiver with Consumer Affairs; if not, this is the bond you post.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. A small fixed-amount registration bond like this doesn't need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond is posted at your initial notification and annually thereafter. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your filing stays current.
