re: #157 NJDhockeyfan

A business or agency has the right to set its own policies regarding food and drink brought in, but those rules at the NYC DOH are particularly restrictive and go above and beyond what is reasonable. I understand the agency’s desire to set an example for others, but they may well find that workers aren’t nearly as excited to work for the agency because of the restrictive rules, they may find that the productivity will decline and ends up harming the overall mission of the agency to promote better health among New Yorkers.

It is nanny-statism gone too far.
