What must Enforcement Officers use while exercising their powers?

According to the PERA Force Laws, Enforcement Officers must use a body camera or a recording device while exercising their powers. This requirement ensures transparency, accountability, and accurate documentation of all actions taken during law enforcement operations. The use of body cameras protects both the officers and the public by providing verifiable evidence of compliance with legal procedures. Options like relying only on whistleblower reports, seeking special magistrate approval, or obtaining written permission from the Authority do not replace the requirement for real-time recording. Section provisions of the PERA Force Laws emphasize that proper use of body cameras and recording devices is mandatory whenever Enforcement Officers perform inspections, arrests, or evidence collection. This measure reinforces integrity in enforcement, prevents misuse of authority, and ensures all actions are legally defensible.
