Why Should Smoking Be Banned In The Workplace
The health effects of smoking in the workplace are well-known and recent studies have proven not only first hand smoking to be dangerous, but passive or second hand smoke to be just as, if not more dangerous. This is why I believe smoking should be banned both inside and outside of the workplace.
Firstly, it has been proven in recent medical studies that first and second hand smoke from tobacco contains over 1000 dangerous chemicals such as tar and formaldehyde, that when released into the air and are inhaled into the lungs can cause a large list of serious health concerns such as cancer, heart attack and stroke. This poses a very high risk for any person within 25 metres of the workplace as second hand smoke may travel around the vicinity
