Those risks include health, absenteeism, reduced productivity, complaints and litigation, so you might want to find out more…. Choosing HealthA smoker’s right to smoke ends at the next person’s nose! The White Paper “Choosing Health” made it very clear that people who choose not to smoke or who are vulnerable because they are to young to protest or dependent, should be protected from the harmful effects of second hand smoke. The Smokefree Award scheme encourages and supports employers who take steps to protect their staff by introducing and implementing a smoking at work policy.Advice includes how to involve employees, how to avoid disputes, and the many advantages of developing a smokefree workplace.
