New Jersey S677 allows employers to prohibit cannabis use by certain employees.
New Jersey S677 amends the Cannabis Regulatory Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Act to allow employers to prohibit the personal recreational use of cannabis by specific employees. These include those who operate heavy machinery, weapons, or whose use would put the public at serious risk, as well as law enforcement officers. Heavy machinery includes vehicles like backhoes and bulldozers, while weapons include firearms and tasers. Employers may require drug tests for these employees if there is reasonable suspicion of cannabis use or observable signs of intoxication.
