employee's his or her employment. Expiration and requirements

this Section.
(e) Each employer shall maintain a record of each employee
that is accessible to the duly authorized representatives of

authority to make any investigation it considers
appropriate into any occurrence in which an employee's
weapon was discharged and to take disciplinary action as
may be appropriate.
