Employees Must Decide on their Own to Quit Smoking, Not under Force

In areas where people work, there must be specific rules on their working hours and supervision. However, under no circumstances should employers decide whether employees can smoke during their free time. People have the ability to make decisions themselves. In addition, allowing employers to decide the lifestyle choices of employees may make it difficult for employees to manage their private life. Finally, it takes time to quit smoking. People adapt in various ways and the universal fixed time framework for quitting smoking can negatively affect employers and employees.

We investigated 12 US hospital employees who are banned from smoking. In workplaces where smoking is permitted, hospital staff who have a high rate of quitting compared to employees in the same community and are allowed to quit smoking have a shorter quit rate. The recurrence rate was similar in both groups. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation 's Tobacco Control Policy Program, Princeton, New Jersey (grant 22931), provided financial aid to the research. Fund for additional analysis and writing by the American Family Medical Laboratory, which funds the Family Medical Science Center (UM - C) of the family of Columbia University and College of Missouri Department of Regional Medicine. Thanks to the hospitals, their employees and the community people who participated in the survey. Also I am grateful for the administrative and administrative support of Shari Schubert, Wendy Luttrell and Orah Mockbee of UM - C.

We evaluated the impact of smoking ban on nationwide workplaces on smoking behavior of employees. Our hypothesis is that full-time employees at work are permitted to smoke in the workplace (completely prohibited) compared with the policy of smoking cessation. It is low. We use a quasi-experimental design to compare employees in the same community working in places where smoking is allowed and hospital (non-smoking) employees. Using this unique natural experiment, we have been investigating hospitals and local employees since 1994. We researched respondents twice and positively evaluated smoking status

Urge people to stop smoking. It is estimated that the smoking rate will drop by 5% due to ban on smoking in the workplace. 70% of smokers expressed willingness to quit. Providing information, resources, and support to employees who smoke during the initial implementation phase of the Smokefree Regulations may be helpful to people who wish to resign.
