NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — The NYPD ordered officers to stop “unnecessary conversation” while on the job Tuesday.

The order comes about two-and-a-half weeks after Mayor Eric Adams was recorded criticizing officers for standing around chatting while working instead of spreading out for better coverage.
The orders were distributed on Tuesday via a department-wide memo, which the New York Post obtained.
“Do not congregate, or engage in unnecessary conversation, with other members of the service while on post, absent police necessity,” the memo reads.
The patrol guide for officers and supervisors was also updated in order to include the order.
