Повний текст джерелаTobacco use is one of the greatest threats to our health. There is much to gain by quitting smoking cigarettes and it's never too late to quit. In the workplace it is important to focus on the work environment as it affects individual well-being and health. Aim: The aim of this study was to identify the measures put in place in smoking cessation, focusing on the workplace as an arena.Method: To answer the question, a systematic literature rewiev has been made. The databases used in the search of scientific articles was PubMed and PsycInfo. Number of articles used in the results was 11 and these have been critically examined. A thematic analysis have been made to analyze the articles of the study. Result: The measures for smoking cessation that emerged were a non-smoking policy, groupcounseling, Internet-based smoking cessation programs and motivating actions. The introduction of a non-smoking policy reduced the number of employees who smoked. By studying smoking cessation groups it was shown that motivation to stop smoking was important in the early stages of smoking cessation and social support was an important force to stay smoke-free in the long run. What was found on Internet-based smoking cessation program was that the employees who used the programs more frequently had the best chance of achieving smoking cessation.The motivational measures that were found to be effective were competitions, money, free tickets to a fitness center as well as setting a date for the planned cessation of smoking. These incentives helped the employees on the road to becoming smoke-free. Implication: An intervention study can be done where the participants focus on giving each other support and advice regarding smoking cessation. Further research may be able to find new ways to achieve smoking cessation in the longer term.

Повний текст джерелаThe World Health Organisation (WHO) presented evidence illustrating that tobacco smoking kills three million people yearly. These statistics are increasing, and unless current trends are reversed by the decade 2020-2030, tobacco will kill 10 million people a year, with 70% of deaths occurring in developing countries (WHO, 1998:1). The WHO then issued a mandate to 191 countries, which included South Africa, requesting them to write, advocate, pass and enforce laws on tobacco control taking into account work and public places, as people tend to spend much time there (WHO,20031-2). According to the literature review, since the promulgation of the Tobacco Act. 1999 (12 of 1999) public officials have been leaving the office much more regularly to congregate with other smokers for a smoke break. This is because legislation stipulates that they may not smoke in the office. It has also been found that the public service delivery process is slow, not only as a result of the phenomenon of smokerism, but also due to staff shortages. Hence, the main purpose of this study was to explore the impact of the Tobacco Act. 1999 (Act No.12 of 1999) on the performance of librarians employed by the City of Cape Town's Library and Information Services: Tygerberg Administration, by focusing on answering two assumptions stating that service delivery is slow and inefficient because of smoke breaks; and that the performance of staff is poor as a result of regular smoke breaks. The research population for this study consisted of 23 out of the 26 librarians-in charge employed in the City of Cape Town's Library and Information Services: Tygerberg Administration, who is the entire target population. The respondents were interviewed using a self-administered questionnaire. The data collected was analysed using software called StatPac for Windows. The results derived indicated that the librarians-in-charge (82.6%) are satisfied with the service delivery offered by their employees. This is regardless of the regular smoke breaks employees take and the grievances of non-smoking employees with regard to the regular smoke breaks taken. However, the Iibrarians-in-charge (91.3%) added that there was room for improvement in terms of dealing with the staff shortages and not the regular smoke breaks. Therefore, based on the findings, the assumptions that relate to this study are discovered to be invalid and untrue. Thus, the Tobacco Act. 1999 (12 of 1999) does not impact on the performance of librarians employed by the City of Cape Town's Library Services, Tygerberg Administration. The following recommendations were formulated: Management should consider taking on volunteers to address the staff shortage situation. Management should motivate employees with any kind of special rewards, remuneration and credentials for work well done. The Director of Social Development and Community Services of the City of Cape Town, Tygerberg Administration, should review the salary structure of librarians and consider increasing it. Both the librarians-in-charge and employees should be educated about the Tobacco Act, 1999 (12 of 1999). This education should also consist of the importance smoking restrictions have in terms of promoting a healthy environment, smoking cessation and job satisfaction. The librarians-in-charge should understand the negative ramifications the lack of rewards, credentials and salary have on job satisfaction. Team-building exercises should be done on a regular basis to strengthen the relationship between employees.

Voluminous studies attest that cigarette smoking is one of the main risk factors for a number of diseases, including cancer, lung diseases, and cardiovascular disease,depressions, diabetes and more. Besides, secondhand smoke exposure can cause similar effect on nonsmokers. Economic costs associated with smoking impose a high financial burden on country, leading to general productivity reduction. Several studies indicated that the implementation of workplace smoking policy can reduce smoking prevalence. Taiwan workplace smoking prevalence reduced 6% from 2004 to 2009. After Taiwan government amended and implemented Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act in 2009,Taiwan workplace smoking prevalence dropped 1.3 % from 2009 to 2011. Workplace smoking prevalence did not decline as expected after the implementation of Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act, which implied that Taiwan workplace smoking policy needed to be reviewed. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between workers’ smoking myths, workplace anti-smoking policy and smoking behavior of workers. This was a cross-sectional study. The amount of 463 workers were recruited from 11 companies in new Taipei city between May 2011 and November 2011. Data were collected by a structured questionnaire which consisted of demographic variables,smoking myths, workplace anti-smoking policy and smoking behavior assessment.Mean and standard deviation were used to describe continuous variables. Frequency distribution and percentage were used to describe categorical variables. T test and Chi-square were used to testify the significance between groups. Logistic regression and multiple hierarchical regression were used to describe the relationship between smoking myths, workplace anti-smoking policy and smoking behavior. The result shows that smoking workers had significantly higher smoking myth scores (OR=2.455 , 95%CI= 1.965-3.069). The relationship between workplace smoking policy and workers’ smoking prevalence is not significant (OR=1.001, 95%CI= 0.709-1.413).The eight questions of smoking myth were testified the difference between smokers and non-smokers. Only one question for health risk perception shows no difference between two groups. The other questions regarding perceived smoking-induced health benefit and social benefit show that smokers have significantly higher myth scores than non-smokers have. In conclusion, the workers believe that smoking helps them relax, relieve stress, increase their work efficiency and play an important role in their social life. Hence, we suggest that Taiwan government might need to modify the current workplace smoking policy in order to reduce workplace smoking prevalence more in the future.

Objective: Exhaled carbon monoxide (CO) concentration is an effective indicator of smoking cessation program in clinics and hospitals. Its application in the community and workplace, however, remains limited. The first section, this study was established that exhaled CO concentration can be used as an objective indicator of the amount of daily cigarette consumption among smokers in the workplace. The second section, for the reason to verify the effectiveness smoking-free policy in workplace. Methods:This research is divided into 2 sections, which had been completed during April 2002 to December 2006. The first section, samples were taken from plant A, a chemical production site, for 150 workers, which included 123 non-smokers and 27 smokers.The conduct of the research are included the analysis of population data, personal information fill out on height, weight, sex, age, cigarette consumption, smoking behavior and the exhaled carbon monoxide level were measured using Micro CO meter (Micro Medical Limited; UK). Microsoft office excel 2003, Minitab software were applied to data analysis by descriptive statistics, pearson correlation, simple linear regression, two-by-two table。The second section, we selected 3 different smoking policy of chemical factories as policies study. Smoker participants included A plant 118, B plant 47 and C plant 11, At that time plant A and plant B implemented prohibitive smoking policy, plant C implemented smoking-free policy. The study were collect the numbers of daily cigarette consumption and smoking behaviors report and the exhaled carbon monoxide level were measured, comparison difference between smoking policy implemented before and after. Results: First section presents as Table.1& Fig.3. The mean exhaled carbon monoxide level of nonsmokers is 4.2 ppm (95% CI: 3.3~5.1).The exhaled CO levels and the numbers of daily cigarette consumption are closely related with the correlation coefficient being +0.73(p<0.01), Adjusted R-square 0.44(simple linear regression model) . A reading > 6 ppm suggests that the worker might be a smoker (Sensitivity: 0.84, Specificity: 0.85). The second section research is the result on the evaluation of non-smoking policy. According to different policies in different plant site did come out with distinct results. Smoking rate and cigarette consumption decrease displayed different effect on each plant. On plant A, (1)14.9% of smoking rate reduction, 34.7% of quit smoking rate. (2)54.4% of cigarette consumed reduction ., 4.3sticks(person/day) of current smoker’s cigarette consumed decreased.(3)34.7% of smoking-free program participants succeeded.(4)achieved smoking-free policy workplace on 2004/01/01 , company registered smoking-free policy to local government.(5)Employees totally complied with legal and plant regulation, non violation case so far. On plant B, (1) 2.8% of smoking rate reduction, 8.5% of quit smoking rate. (2)11% of cigarette consumed reduction, 0.4 sticks (person/day) of current smoker’s cigarette consumed decreased. (3)Plant B achieved smoking-free policy workplace on 2005/07/01 as legal safety regulation.(4)Employees totally complied with legal and plant regulation, non violation case so far. On Plant C (1) Plant C had not been detected difference of smoking status between policies before and after. (2) Plant C keep smoking-free policy as legal safety regulation as past years. Conclusions: We suggest that a cut-point 6ppm of exhaled CO level can be a useful and objective indictor to distinguish smokers from non- smokers in the workplace in Taiwan. The study found that comprehensive achieved tobacco control program in workplace plays a critical or role setting up regulations, even for smokers. Our study proves that the smoking free policy can efficiently affect the worker’s smoking behavior. Plant A and Plant B implement the smoking-free policy with different programs so there are significant difference in the reduction of smoking rate and cigarette consumption between the two plants. The reduction of smoking rate and cigarette consumption for plant A are14.9% and 54.4% while they are 2.8% and 11% for plant B. Based on this study, only complying with government regulations does not help the reduction of smoking rate and cigarette consumption. Although there are smoking-free program and related quit-smoking course in place, it is hard to achieve the goals and probably will waste resource and time if the execution plan is not well performed. In order to maintain a smoking harm-free work place and provide employees with healthy working environment, the following steps should be taken place. Set up smoking-free policy to help the develop smoking-free program and detailed implementation plan. Well execute the plan to keep monitoring the sustainability of tobacco control. Overall, the reduced smoking rate and smoking amount in A plant are both of 5 times higher than those in B plant. It is found not only the long-term effort in manpower and time but also strong commitment the program so that we can establish and sustain the smoking free policy in the workplace.

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF A WORKPLACE ANTI-SMOKING PROGRAM Background: The Bureau of Health Promotion established the Worksite Tobacco Campaign Center (WTCC) in 2003 to reduce the prevalence of smoking and environment tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure in worksites. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the workplace anti-smoking program conducted by the WTCC. Methods: Data were obtained from a mailed questionnaire survey. The study subjects included: (1) the Worksite Tobacco Campaign Center – representing the “input” indexes of the program, (2) factory administers – to investigate the smoking policies in the worksites, (3) factory workers – to measure the prevalence of smoking and ETS exposure in the workplace. Results: Overall, 503 factories and approximately 200,000 workers participated in this program. 43% of factory administers and 50.6% factory workers returned questionnaires. After a 3-year promotion period (2003 to 2005), 53.7% of respondent factories adopted smoke-free policies, and the proportion of anti-smoking activities increased 30%. In 2003, 11.4% of factories reported having no restrictions on smoking, but the percentage was much lower in 2005 (1.7%). The larger facilities were more likely to implement smoking policies then smaller. As for “manufacturing”, the smoking rates of workers who participated in 2003 were 37.2%, and it decreased to 29.7% in 2005. The cessation rate of workers who participated in 2003 was 17.9%, and the rate increased to 23.6% in 2005. More then 30% of smokers reduced tobacco consumption after participating in the program. The prevalence of smoking in workplace was significantly associated with gender, age, education and job. The problem of ETS exposure was still a serious issue, especially for low education or smokers. While factories that consulted with the WTCC made great progress in smoking control policies and actions, they need to show greater efforts to reduce the smoking rate of male workers and ETS exposure in the workplace. Key words: workplace anti-smoking program, effectiveness evaluation

Objective: According to the reports, some factors affect the behavior of quitting smoke such as age, initial smoking age, educational level, birthplace, marriage etc. The aim of this study was to investigate the factors related to successful smoke quitting in workers of a steel factory. Method: (1) There were 145 steel factory male workers volunteered to our study, included 55 non-smokers, 47 smokers and 54 cessation of smoking. Questionnaires were taken to collect the demographics, smoking history, food intake habit, and work activity data. (2) We surveyed the quitted workers who attended a six-week smoking cessation program and were followed up for ten weeks afterward. (3) Urine samples were collected as well during the smoking cessation program and the follow trail. The quantity determination of cotinine was performed by LC-MS. Result: (1) The age range of the subjects were from 26 to 45 and 101 workers (68.2%) reported high education level. (2) Among the 54 workers who acceded the smoking cessation program, 26 staff were from cold rolling plant and the other 28 held a position in hot rolling plant. Their age ranged from 35 to 45. About 72.6 % person perfects to have chill, pepper or saltiness taste. The average duration of smoking of these 54 workers was 16.4 years and the mean smoking amount was 20.5 cigarettes per day whose mean nicotine addiction degree was 3.9. About 54% workers were in the coalesced offices, and 68.9% of them had exposure in ii environmental tobacco-smoke (ETS) in workplace. There were 22 workers quitted smoking over 3 months after the smoking cessation program, 19 workers smoked less than before, and 10 workers remained smoking as usual. The staff who had quit smoking for three month were associated with educational level (p=0.044), betel nut-using (p=0.045) and heavy food taste (p=0.041). After adjusting for the factor of age, the favorite spicy food showed positive correlation (OR=1.75, p <0.05) and high educational level revealed negative relation (OR= 0.13, p <0.05) with the smoke quitting.

Повний текст джерелаThe South African Minister of Health has, in terms of Section 2 of the South African Tobacco Products Control Act, 1993 (Act No. 83 of 1993), as amended, declared the public places specified in the Regulations as permissible smoking areas, subject to the conditions also specified in the Regulations. "Swanepoel et al., (2000:597) argues that it is common knowledge today that smoking causes health problems. These problems can basically be categorised into two groups: The health implications for the employee who smokes; and The health and other implications for non-smoking employees who become passive smokers as a result of their colleagues' smoking habits. Apart from the implications for the smoker, there are also major implications for the non-smoking employees and for the organisation as a whole. It follows that, if cigarette smoke is a health risk for the smoker, it must also be so for the non-smoker. The breathed-out smoke contains the same harmful ingredients (such as carbon monoxide and recognised carcinogens — in other words, chemicals that cause cancer) to which the smoker is exposed. In addition, smoking often bothers non-smokers, causing conflict, hostility, negative feelings, deteriorating interpersonal relations — all of which may impact negatively on workforce morale and productivity. There is no single approach and policy for all organisations. The general principles, however, are that a working party should be established, the issue should be raised, the workforce should be consulted and the policy must then be formulated and implemented. It is in the interest of good industrial relations to work out an agreed policy between the company, employees and their representative trade unions (if any), taking into account the interest of smokers and non-smokers, rather than merely imposing an immediate and total ban. The control of smoking in the workplace through a professional process of formulating and implementing an appropriate non-smoking policy will enhance the healthiness or wellness of both smoking and non-smoking employees". The aim of this research is to assess the perceptions of smoking as well as nonsmoking employees of the said regulations of the Act and to assess if the targeted companies adhered to the new Regulations. Employees of three different companies in the Johannesburg in the Gauteng area in South Africa will be ask to complete questionnaires regarding the New Smoking Regulations in South Africa.

Cigarette smoking is known to be the cause of several adverse health effects to both active smokers and non-smokers exposed to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS). According to the world health report 2003, about 5 million people die as a result of smoking. ETS exposure is also associated with an increased risk of several respiratory illness and heart disease. The WHO has tried to carry out healthy work environment in recent years, and how to minimize or eliminating the ETS exposure in the workplace is one of the target task. However, the designated smoking and non-smoking areas could provide how much protection from ETS exposure in the workplace has not yet been concerned in Taiwan. In this study, we investigated one hi-tech workplace in the north with restricted-smoking policy to compare the airborne nicotine levels and indoor air quality between the smoking room and non-smoking areas. Further, pre- and post-shift urinary nicotine and cotinine levels were determined in identical subjects staying in the restricted smoking environment for 8 hours. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of smoking control programs in the hi-tech workplace. In total, 159 subjects provided their urine samples for nicotine and cotinine measurements. Nicotine and cotinine levels were measured by GC-MS. The results showed the mean levels of airborne nicotine and PM2.5 were much higher in the smoking room compared to non-smoking areas. For nicotine, mean levels were 28.1 μg/m3 in the smoking room and non-detectable in the non-smoking areas. Corresponding PM2.5 levels were 697.8 μg/m3 and 30 μg/m3. This suggest the isolation of smoking room could provide protection from environmental tobacco smoke. In addition, the geometric mean urinary nicotine and cotinine concentration differed between smokers and non-smokers. For smokers, the nicotine and cotinine levels declined after staying in the restricted smoking environment for 8 hours. The mean values of nicotine and cotinine were highest in heavy (>20 cigarette per day) smokers, followed by moderate (<20 cigarette per day) and light (occasional) smokers. In non-smokers nicotine and cotinine concentrations were much higher for pre-shift samples than those of post-shift samples. Based on the findings, we concluded that a restricted-smoking policy workplace with isolated smoking room could provide protection from ETS exposure if sufficient attention is given to overall system design, air exchange rates, and directional airflow. Otherwise, the accessibility to the smoking room and the education to the staff should also be taken into consideration to avoid the smoking outside the designated areas.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to realize the effects of a smoking cessation program that influence smoking employees'' efficacy expectation, outcome expectation, social support, and amount of cigarettes they smoked per day in the workplace on factory. Also examine the relationships of the smoking employees'' cessation behavior with personal characteristics, efficacy expectation, outcome expectation, and social support. The quasi-experimental method and the survey method were used throughout this research. The subjects were volunteers from paper mill in Ilan; and were divided into two groups for fulfilling the research''s need. There were fifty smokers in the experimental group and another fifty smokers in the comparative group. The experimental group had smoking cessation program, which included four group-discussions and three lectures. For those who in comparative group, they were given only brochures. Two structural questionnaires were designed to collect data from pretreatment and posttreatment assessments of smoking behavior, efficacy expectation, outcome expectation, and social support. A month after the smoking cessation program was finished; another structural questionnaire was utilized to trace all the subjects on their smoking status. The obtained data were analyzed by chi-square, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson product-moment, multiple regression, and logistic regression with commercial available software SPSS 7.0. The major results were as follow: 1. The percentage prevalence at second and third survey were 16% and 19% respectively, the result of second survey indicated the number of cigarettes smoked reduced to 39% per day. And the reduced rate was up to 41% when the follow up survey was done on one month later. 2. After the intervention was applied, the efficacy expectation of employees in experimental group was increased significantly. While adjust certain factors, subject''s efficacy expectation, outcome expectation, social support and smoking reduction was significantly higher than those were in the comparative group. 3. All subjects that were found with middle level confidence could resist various situations that would attract their desire for smoking. 4. All subjects'' expectation toward to quit the smoking were positive. "To reduce the smell of cigarette" was one of the items that subjects cared most. 5. The support from family and friends were relatively low. "Congratulation for decision to quit smoking" was one of the supports that subjects heard most often. 6. The posttreatment efficacy expectation was both the best predictor of smoking reduction in the second and third surveys. 7. Among those who did quit the smoking during the period of research, the best predictors for validated quitting were educational level and posttreatment efficacy expectation. Based on the results of this study, some recommendation for anti-smoking health education and further investigations were suggested: 1. To implement smoking restriction strategies in the workplace and establish a teaching program to help the smoking employees to abstain from smoking, especially for those who has higher educational level. 2. In order to help smoker to control their smoking desire under varies situations; the focus of the smoking cessation program should include the following: (1) How to teach quitter to handle their desire for smoking? How to relax? (2) How to teach the smoking employee to refuse the treat of cigarettes from other smokers. 3. To keep on further studies of smoking cessation in different workplaces. 4. To measure the carbon monoxide level that utilizes the reduction number of cigarettes smoked as an indicator.

Повний текст джерелаThis is a study about perceptions, attitudes and behaviours held by employees of the South African Department of Defence (DOD) on the fairness of the Tobacco Control Policy (TCP) at the workplace in DOD. It was based on a stratified random sample of n=125 individuals selected from 1, 000 employees. The study was also predominantly quantitative in nature, where data was collected with a pre-tested and validated structured questionnaire. Pearsons chi-square tests of association and factor analysis were used for identifying factors that significantly influenced perception on the TCP adopted by DOD. The Cronbach Alpha test and face validation were used for ensuring internal consistency and validity.
