As an employer, what can you do?

In 2022, nearly a quarter of people aged 18–75 smoked daily. Yet smoking poses a real health risk and is the leading cause of preventable death. It is linked to numerous health conditions, including lung cancer, heart attack, COPD, and diabetes.

As an employer, you can first ensure compliance with the law, which prohibits smoking in the workplace. Next, you can contribute to your employees’ well-being through a responsible approach, free from stigma. By encouraging your employees to quit smoking through the provision of prevention tools and materials, you help create a smoke-free world that is more respectful of everyone’s health.

You can also organize events to encourage your employees to quit smoking; tools available for download and order provide you with ideas and guidance on how to do so.
