Workplace tobacco interventions.
Health promotion programs are becoming an integral part of work site activities. Recent data from Indiana businesses suggest that smoking is a leading concern. An objective has been adopted by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce that states that the number of employers with work site smoking cessation policies should increase. Smoking control and cessation programs implemented in industry have contributed to a decrease in the number of smokers and in the health risks of nonsmokers exposed to environmental tobacco smoke. This report describes the effectiveness of work site smoking control programs.
