Public Health England Releases Workplace Vaping ‘Framework’
More workplaces in England are developing their own vaping policies for workers, so Public Health England (PHE) has released a framework to help establish policies for smokefree workplaces. The framework is just that, a frame in order for workplaces to mirror their own policies around, according to NHS Employers. It centers around five principles:- Make the distinction between vaping and smoking clear.
- Policies should be informed by the evidence on health risks to bystanders.
- Identify and manage the risks of uptake by children and young people.
- Help smokers to stop smoking and stay smokefree.
- Ensure compliance with smokefree law and policies.
