Introduction

The New Jersey Smoke-Free Air Act (NJ SFAA) was passed by the New Jersey legislature and signed by the Governor in January, 2006. Effective April 15, 2006, the new law requires smokefree environments in essentially all indoor workplaces and places open to the public including restaurants and bars, except gaming floors in casinos. Click here to go to the NJ SFAA section of this website where you'll find information on the provisions of the law, enforcement, implementation, using local laws to enhance and augment the law, background, other assistance, etc.
