Adopting a Smoke-free Workplace

Tobacco-free workplaces can enhance productivity in two ways: by reducing the effects of secondhand smoke (SHS) on nonsmokers and by reducing excess smoking-related absenteeism among smokers who are motivated to quit as a result of the tobacco-free policy.

Action Steps:

1. Assess the current situation so you know where your company stands

2. Support for Employees that Smoke

3. Decide on a new policy and develop a plan to implement it

4. Make the Transition Smooth and the Policy Work

5. Announce and Manage the Policy
