Independent contractors are not covered by the NJ Division of Wage and Hour Compliance. A bona fide independent contractor must bring the claim to the small claims court in the county where the employer resides or conducts business. If you are unsure whether you are a bona fide independent contractor, it is advisable for you to file a claim so that a determination can be made as to whether the Division can assist you with your claim.
