Smokefree in a Box - a guide for smokefree workplaces

2008-07-29

Over the past 20 years, workplaces around the world have seen a sweeping movement towards smokefree air policies. Many companies have adopted smokefree policies voluntarily to protect workers and customers from the proven dangers of secondhand smoke. Other companies have created smokefree workplaces to comply with existing laws. Companies that have gone smokefree have found that these policies save money as well as lives. The policies also improve worker satisfaction and the company's public image.

The purpose of "Smokefree in a Box" is to help companies design and implement a smokefree workplace. Experience from smokefree companies shows that proper implementation of these policies requires planning and coordination. The tools in this guide provide senior leadership, managers, and staff with easy-to-use advice on what to do from the moment their company decides to implement a smokefree policy.

"Smokefree in a Box" is currently available in English, Chinese, French, Portuguese and Spanish.
