Abstract:
<p><em>This study aimed to facilitate organisational change through research to implement a workplace smoking ban. Previous appeals to the executive management had been unsuccessful, as the health service complied with legal requirements. </em><em>This small exploratory research study, utilized</em><em> the employee survey developed by QUIT Victoria, to gather evidence of staff opinions about workplace smoking.</em><em> Approximately 25% of the workforce smoked. The majority of the workforce in the study supported a workplace smoking ban, citing adverse effects of smoking on them and the environment. Staff also support quit smoking initiatives for staff and a small percentage of those who smoke (27%) reported it would encourage them to quit. Four staff reported that a workplace smoking ban would create difficulties for them, highlighting the importance of support for these staff. A smoke free workplace policy was introduced as a result of the research project. Utilizing a research approach, facilitated positive change for local level workforce and workplace issues.</em></p>

Abstract:
In recent years workplace smoking policies have become increasingly prevalent and restrictive. Using data from two large-scale national surveys, we investigate whether these policies reduce smoking. Our estimates suggest that workplace bans reduce smoking prevalence by 5 percentage points and daily consumption among smokers by 10 percent. Although workers with better health habits are more likely to work at firms with smoking bans, estimates from systems of equations indicate that these results are not subject to an omitted variables bias. The rapid increase in bans can explain all of the recent drop in smoking among workers relative to nonworkers. (JEL J28, I18)

Abstract:
Guidelines and laws prohibit smoking in public places, and evidence supports the safety and effectiveness of workplace wellness programs in promoting healthy environments. A long-term care (LTC) facility selected as the focus for this project does not offer wellness programs and does not restrict on-site smoking by employees. The purpose of this project was to construct an evidence-based smoking cessation education program for delivery to employees at the LTC facility. The practice-focused question addressed whether a workplace wellness smoking cessation education program would increase employees' knowledge of the harmful effects of smoking and promote engagement in smoking cessation strategies. A pretest and posttest to assess knowledge of the harmful effects of smoking was designed to be administered to employees prior to and after the education program. A panel of 6 experts consisting of 4 clinical nurse specialists, a nurse educator, and a nurse researcher was selected to assess the potential effectiveness of the education program. A 10-question survey was used to obtain the panel experts' evaluation of the program. Descriptive statistics were then used to analyze the results. Nearly all of the experts surveyed reported that they would recommend the education program to a friend or colleague, with 66% selecting "very likely" This is indicative of the potential for the program to be effective. Findings might support social change at the selected facility by increasing staff knowledge of the harmful effects of smoking and staff commitment to participating in a smoking cessation program.

Abstract:
Introduction: Smoking has been considered as one of the leading preventable cause of lung disease, cardiovascular disease and cancer. China, has 20% of the population in the world, but consumes 30% of the world’s cigarette and has suffered 1 million deaths per year from tobacco use. The workplace is an important field for smoking control, but there are relatively few reports on the current situation of workplace smoking control with the exception of reports from North American countries. Objectives: This project aims to investigate the effectiveness of workplace smoking control policy on smokers’ behavior in Asian population, mainly the comparison of smoke free policy, smoke restriction ban with no smoking ban, and to identify the potential factors that associated with the compliance of smoking policy. Methods：Articles that are relevant to workplace smoking policy were searched and identified through PubMed and CNKI by using a combination of keywords. Articles that studied the effects of workplace smoking control policy on smoking behavior and the factors that associated the compliance of smoke control policy were included. All studies were conducted in the Asian countries and the outcome measures were current smoking prevalence, daily cigarette consumption, and willingness to quit smoking. Results: Of the 541 studies identified, 11 articles were identified to be relevant and included in this systematic review. Smoking-free policy was showed to be the most effective strategy to enhance the changes in smokers’ behavior. Eight of nine studies that compared smoke free with no smoke ban gave consistent conclusion that smoking free policy could reduce the prevalence of smoking dramatically. It was associated with higher willingness to quit smoking among smokers and could reduce the smokers’ daily cigarettes consumption by 3 to 4 cigarettes per day. There was limited evidence that smoke restriction policy could reduce the prevalence of smokers. Even though smoke restriction policy could reduce daily cigarettes consumption and increased the smokers’ willingness to quit smoking, but the effect was much lower than those in the workplace with smoke free policy. In addition, occupation, such as salesmen and marketing employee, the reason of implementing the smoke control policy(e.g. ‘workplace safety’, ‘maintain good air quality’, ‘reduce ETS in non-smokers’), and lack of knowledge of hazard in cigarettes were the factors contributed to the low compliance of smoke control policy. Conclusion: Overall, workplace smoke-free policy is the most effective way in changing smoking behavior. Workplace smoke-free should be implemented as a public health priority and accompanied with health education and smoking cessation service to assure the compliance.

Abstract:
There have been a limited number of studies carried out on employee workplace identity. There have been many studies carried out on organizational change; however, they have been carried out mostly from an instrumentalist perspective where the topic of organizational change has been treated in isolation from other aspects of organization. The question of how a relationship exists between employee workplace identity and organizational change has been left unanswered. This thesis applies narrative theory as a conceptual bridge across identity and change. By considering how employees derive a sense of workplace identity from the workplace narratives, and organizational change as the destruction of existing workplace narratives and adoption of new workplace narratives, it is possible to gain new understandings of these concepts. A theory is developed which explains how narrative theory creates a relationship between identity and change. This new theory is further developed to explain how narrative theory creates a relationship between organizational identity, culture, leadership, conflict, and change. The new extended theory is applied to a narrative presentation of empirical data, which offers a powerful explanatory lens for understanding the relationship between these chosen aspects of organization.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: The common argument used against the implementation of tobacco control policies is that revenue from tobacco duty is considerably higher than the health care costs smoking imposes on society. This point is true as revenue in the United Kingdom (UK) totalled £9.1 billion while recent costs estimates for the treatment of smoking-attributable disease totalled £5.2 billion to the UK National Health Service. However, this argument becomes unclear when indirect costs such as productivity loss or cost of absenteeism are incorporated. In the UK, there were 29.2 million employed adults in 2011 of which 20% were current smokers. This equates to approximately 5.84 million employed adult smokers. There are currently no studies which have quantified the economic impact of smoking-attributable indirect costs to both employers and the wider society in the UK. These costs are suspected to impose a large economic burden to society but the best practice methodology for estimating indirect costs and the magnitude of these costs are still unknown. Therefore, the aims of this thesis were to quantify the economic impact of smoking-attributable indirect costs due to productivity loss from premature mortality and absenteeism of workforce and to evaluate workplace interventions which could potentially decrease the burden of smoking in the workforce in the UK. Methods: A number of methods were used along with a range of data sources which provided the information to quantify the economic impact of smoking in the workforce. Cost-of-illness methodology based on the human capital method was utilised to quantify the monetary burden of smoking in the workforce due to premature mortality in the UK. Systematic review and meta-analysis was used to examine the epidemiological association between smoking and absenteeism while also providing the necessary parameters to estimate costs of absence in the UK. Finally, decision analysis and Markov simulation modelling was used to conduct both cost-benefit analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis from the employer's perspective for evaluating workplace smoking cessation interventions of brief advice, individual counselling and nicotine replacement therapy with individual counselling. Results: Cost-of-smoking modelling estimated that smoking was responsible for 96,105 deaths (58% male) in adults aged 35 years and over (17% of all deaths) in the UK annually, resulting in 1.2 million years of total life lost and 357,831 years of productive life lost valued at £4.93 billion in 2010. From the systematic review of 29 longitudinal studies, current smokers had a 33% increase in risk of absenteeism and were absent for an average of 2.74 more days per year compared with non-smokers. Compared with never smokers, ex-smokers had a 14% increase in risk of absenteeism; however, no increase in duration of absence could be detected. Indirect comparison meta-analysis showed that current smokers also had a 19% increase in risk of absenteeism compared with ex-smokers. Consequently, smoking was estimated to cost UK employers £1.46 billion in 2011 from absenteeism in the workplace. Workplace interventions for smoking cessation provide a possible method for reducing the burden of smoking in the workforce. Cost-benefit analysis of workplace interventions resulted in brief advice being the optimal decision strategy for women while brief advice and individual counselling both were optimal decision strategies for men in terms of minimising total costs and maximising return on investment for the employer. If the employer valued maximising quitting instead, cost-effectiveness analysis showed that nicotine replacement therapy with individual counselling would be the optimal strategy given a maximised budget constraint. Conclusion: This thesis has provided the first indirect cost-of-smoking study quantifying the productivity loss due to premature mortality and absenteeism in UK; the first systematic review and meta-analysis which has explored the association between smoking and absence from work; and the first cost-benefit and cost-effectiveness analyses of workplace interventions for smoking cessation in the UK. The implications of this research have particular relevance for UK policy makers and employers to justify stronger tobacco control policy which promotes smoking cessation. However, these findings are not unique to the UK. The thesis has provided the framework and methodology for studies that can strengthen the evidence-base around the economics of smoking in other countries as well.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to assess the status of worksite smoking policies in Indiana's manufacturing industries and to describe the relationship between policy, workforce size, and manufacturing type. Of the 493 questionnaires distributed, 181 (36.7%) were returned. Approximately 67% percent of the industries reported having some type of restrictive policy with the majority of those policies not allowing smoking at the worksite except in designated areas. Most policies were developed within the last five years and were implemented due to a concern for employee health. Workforce size was directly related to the prevalence of significant restrictions. Those companies employing greater then 100 employees were the most likely to have a policy whereas the employing less than 11 were the least likely to have a policy. Standard industrial classifications 34 (fabricated metal products) and 35 (machinery, except electrical) had less restrictive policies as compared to other S.I.C. classifications. A follow up on 10% (n=30) of the nonrespondents yielded similar results to those who did respond.

Abstract:
Behaviors that may waste time in the workplace, like surfing the Internet for personal purposes (cyberloafing) or smoking breaks, may be the root antecedent for poor productivity. The purpose of this correlational study was to examine whether there was a relationship between the independent variables: time spent cyberloafing and time in uncontrolled smoking breaks, and the dependent variable: employee productivity. Procedural justice theory was used to frame the study. The population consisted of 34 employees working in a multinational engineering company in Jordan who have official smoking policies, but not cyberloafing policies. Correlations and multiple regression were computed using a Cyberloafing Scale and time spent smoking (independent variables) and The Endicott Work Productivity Scale (dependent variable). The results of the correlations indicated no significant relationship between Internet surfing and employee productivity. Smoking breaks were not a significant source of wasted time during the workday (the subsample and frequency of engaging in smoking were low); therefore, smoking did not have an effect on productivity. The findings of this study support the theory that using the Internet at work does not affect employee productivity. These findings have implications for positive social change that are also supported by existing research. Employees who engage in personal Internet activities at work tend to meet private demands and obligations. This connectivity may help to facilitate work-life balance.

Abstract:
A grounded theory approach was used to explore the reasons why staff who work in alcohol and drug treatment services smoke cigarettes. Eleven in-depth interviews were conducted with staff in Victoria across a variety of service types and roles. Data gathered from the interviews were analysed and grouped into categories. From analysis of the interviews it appeared that cigarette smoking is given legitimacy in the alcohol and drug treatment field that reinforces its place in these services. Legitimacy was evident in three main ways - Permission, a Therapeutic Tool and Rewards. Permission to smoke was communicated by means which included the opportunity to smoke at work, the provision of smoking areas, the absence of no-smoking rules and policies, and an acceptance of smoking. Smoking was seen as a therapeutic tool that enhanced the treatment provided to clients. Some smokers saw cigarettes as a tool to convey empathy, develop rapport, promote a feeling of engagement and manage difficult clients. Smokers also received some rewards to reinforce their behaviour. There was a benefit of feeling an increased acceptance by other staff, increased socialising, work breaks, a reduction in perceived stress levels and the opportunity to readily satisfy cravings for nicotine that reinforced the smoking behaviour. Punishments, or negative rewards, for smoking were also described. These included being recipients of harassment or pressure from non-smoking staff and concerns about the impact of smoking on their health. These three categories of permission, therapeutic tool and rewards contribute to the legitimacy of smoking in this field and support the continued presence of this behaviour.

Abstract:
Higher education programs need to prepare their graduates for the practical challenges they can expect to face upon entering the workforce. Students can be better prepared if their academic learning is reinforced through authentic workplace experience, where the link between theory and professional practice can be realized. Increasingly, such learning in the workplace is being seen as an integral part of the university curricula as evidenced through the implementation of the Learning the Workplace & Community (LiWC) Policy at Victoria University, Australia. This policy mandates a minimum of 25% content and assessment of all academic programs be related to work-integrated learning. Recognizing the need for authentic workplace experience in the IT undergraduate program, a review found that the existing work-related learning component accounted for only half the required 25% LiWC commitment. Currently, the LiWC component is an industry-based capstone project that spans two semesters in the final year of study. These projects allow students to work on real-life software development tasks where they experience the practical challenges of building software systems whilst appreciating the needs of a business client. In a search of the literature, campus-located industry projects were identified as one of the two most common work-related learning experiences in IT programs, the other being internships sited in the workplace. By retaining the current project-based component, it was decided to add an internship to the program to further bolster the student learning experience and graduate outcomes. This paper details the existing program structure and explores two possible implementations for the achievement of the LiWC policy. The first approach necessitates the addition of one academic year of cooperative education internship to be placed strategically between the current second and third years. Alternatively, the second proposal sacrifices several elective units to accommodate a final semester internship experience. The paper discusses both alternatives against various issues under consideration: staffing and administration, assessment, industry partnerships, professional accreditation and its impact upon differing cohorts of students.

Abstract:
Abstract. Phenotypes of exacerbations of occupational chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) due to aerosols containing nanoparticles is not studied enough. The objective was to establish rate, severity, cellular type of inflammation, clinical features of acute exacerbations of occupational COPD due to industrial aerosols containing nanoparticles exposure. Materials and methods. A prospective observational study of 50 subjects with occupational COPD (of which 26 due to aerosols, containing metal nanoparticles and 24 due to aerosols containing silica nanoparticles) and of 50 subjects with COPD due to tobacco smoke performed. Follow up period was 26 (24; 30) months. Groups were matched by age, gender, COPD duration. Groups of occupational COPD has the same smoking status. Nanoparticles and dust concentrations at workplaces air were measured by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry and by scanning electron microscopy. COPD exacerbations rate and severity, cellular type of inflammation during exacerbations were investigated. Relationships were assessed by Cox proportional-hazards regression. Results. Occupational COPD due to aerosols containing metal nanoparticles exposure was characterized by high exacerbation rate. In comparison to occupational COPD due to aerosols containing silica nanoparticles exposure the hazard ratio (HR) was 4,59, 95% CI 1,35–15,63, in relation to COPD in tobacco smokers HR was 3,35, 95% CI1,22 – 9,21. The risk of exacerbations requiring hospitalization also was higher in this group, HR 4,35, 95% CI 1,10-12,3 and HR 3,90, 95% CI 1,33–11,42, respectively. In occupational COPD due to aerosols containing silica nanoparticles the exacerbation rate was the least. Metal nanoparticles mass concentration at the workplace air was associated with COPD exacerbations HR 1,031, 95% CI 1,012–1,11, exacerbations requiring hospitalization HR 1,028, 95% CI 1,010–1,092 and with eosinophilic inflammation during COPD exacerbation ОР 0,015, 95% CI 0,002 – 0,036. Silica nanoparticles mass concentration was associated with COPD exacerbations HR 0,025, 95% CI 0,003–0,094, exacerbations requiring hospitalization HR 0,021, 95% CI 0,009–0,105 and with neutrophilic inflammation during COPD exacerbation HR 1,019, 95% CI 1,008–1,057. Exacerbations of occupational COPD due to aerosols containing nanoparticles exposure had higher rate of respiratory support and excess length of hospital stay. Conclusion. Occupational COPD exacerbations are associated with chemical composition and mass concentration of nanoparticles in industrial aerosols
