What does the smokefree legislation mean for employers?

It requires employers to:

• Ensure their premises are smokefree.
• Display ‘No-smoking’ signs in a prominent position at all public entrances. Businesses can register for free signage and guidance at the Smokefree England website (see link below). 
• Take reasonable steps to ensure that customers and staff are aware that the premises are legally required to be smokefree and that everyone complies with the law.

The following external link to the Smokefree England website gives information about the new legislation, plus how you can play an important part in creating a smoke free England
