Survey of the implementation of workplace alcohol and smoking policies among employers in Fife.
A survey of major employers in Fife shows that at present 33% of respondents have implemented written alcohol policies, while 40% have implemented written smoking policies. A total of 19% have both alcohol and smoking policies in place. The initiative for policy development appears to have arisen mainly from management, but trade unions and management have co-operated well during policy formulation. The majority of policies have been implemented for more than three years. A small number of companies in Fife appear to be interested in the development and implementation of written alcohol and smoking policies in the workplace.
