Permits law enforcement agencies to prohibit recreational use of cannabis items by law enforcement officers.

This bill amends New Jersey's existing cannabis employment protections to specifically allow law enforcement agencies to prohibit recreational cannabis use by officers. It directly affects law enforcement officers, exempting them from the general rule that protects most employees from employment actions based on off-duty cannabis use. The key mechanism permits agencies to discipline officers for using cannabis during work hours, being impaired while working, or following work-related accidents - consistent with existing drug testing policies for impaired performance. This change aligns law enforcement workplace rules with other public safety professions while maintaining broader cannabis use protections for non-law enforcement employees.
