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.
FDA Vaping Regulation - E-Cig Prohibition
Despite UK Public Health England's study finding e-cig vapor products
95% less harmful than cigarettes, the FDA is still decimating the vapor industry within the United States.
The has FDA published their deeming regulations which will wipe out the entire vaping industry as we know it regardless of what you use your vape for.
Non-nicotine e-liquids and vape pens including herbal vaporizers are also at risk of being regulated out of existence. These products can be perceived as tobacco products even if you do not use them with nicotine or tobacco.
