Report Link Can a Health Care Employer in New Jersey Refuse to Hire a Smoker?Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC - June 05, 2007 The short answer is, maybe. New Jersey has a law specifically prohibiting discrimination against an employee because the person is (or is not) a smoker. The law provides that "no employer shall refuse to hire or employ any person or shall discharge from employment or take any adverse action against any employee with respect to compensation, terms, conditions or other privileges of employment because that person does or does not smoke or use other tobacco products." Aggrieved applicants and employees may sue their employers in court for violating the law.
