Hi Folks,

I tried to find this topic on 'search forums' but the thing seems to be playing up, so I'll repost the question.

We are now having to make a corporate statement about workers supporting people to smoke. I actually think that to insist is very dodgy, but I am aware from previous posts that some employers see supporting smokers as just another duty which staff can be required to perform. If your employer insists that workers support smokers I would love further information, and if possible, sight of any policies you might have to support this. My slightly disguised email addy is john.knight@suerydercare.###org.

I know that some of our managers want to be able to insist, manily because allowing staff to make a choice in this might actually mean that in some cases we can't offer people support, so before we do make a decision I want to be very sure that we aren't shooting ourselves in the foot one way or another,

John
