New Jersey Titer Testing
Some New Jersey employers require antibody testing, also known as titer testing, as part of their pre-employment screening process. Existing employees may also be tested periodically as part of the process to ensure safety in the workplace, especially for industries such as healthcare or education. Titer testing is the first step to determining if someone is immune to certain diseases, such as varicella (Chickenpox), hepatitis A, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, measles, mumps, rubella, or COVID-19. If the antibody test indicates that an individual is not immune, Health Street can also provide services for vaccines and immunizations.

Overview of New Jersey Regulations
New Jersey Antibody Testing Regulations
There are no New Jersey titer test regulations requiring employees to prove vaccination or immunity to communicable disease, with the exception of COVID-19 for some workers.
Although there are no New Jersey titer test regulations, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) offer recommendations for vaccination and titer testing.
Although vaccinations are not mandated in New Jersey, certain employers, such as those in healthcare, may wish to request that their employees be vaccinated. In this case, titer tests can be used to show immunity to certain diseases in lieu of vaccination.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are antibody tests (titer tests) important?
Antibody tests check for the presence of antibodies of certain diseases in the blood. The presence of antibodies determines that a person has immunity to that disease and vaccination may not be necessary. Immunity among employees prevents the spread of communicable diseases.
Does New Jersey require you to test?
New Jersey titer test regulations do not require titer testing. However, since vaccines are not generally required, titer testing can determine immunity to contagious diseases among workers. If employees don't have immunity, they should consider vaccination.
What do titer tests test for?
New Jersey antibody tests check for the presence of antibodies to diseases in the blood. The presence of antibodies determines a person's immunity to that disease. Common New Jersey antibody tests include MMR, Tdap, Varicella, Hepatitis, and Meningitis.
What does a positive titer test mean?
A titer test, also known as an antibody test, checks the blood for the presence of antibodies for a particular disease. A positive titer test means that antibodies are present, and that person has immunity to the disease.
How much do antibody tests cost?
The cost for New Jersey antibody testing varies by each test and which lab analyzes the testing. Packages are often offered for multiple tests at a discounted rate.
How long are titer tests good for?
Titer test results are records of whether a person has tested positive or negative for immunity against certain diseases. Depending on the type of disease, some employers may require employees to periodically test for antibodies, and may require employees to receive certain vaccinations before they are permitted to work. The frequency of testing depends on many factors, including the industry and the type of disease or vaccine.
