[The strategy for supporting anti-tobacco activities in Poland, "Project on tobacco-free workplace"].

Abstract:

:This paper presents basic information on the assumptions, goals and progress of the activities under the project "Tobacco-free workplace" implemented by the National Center for Workplace Health Promotion as a part of the "Health and socio-economic policy aimed at the reduction of tobacco consumption", coordinated by the Epidemiology Division, M. Sklodowska-Curie Oncology Center, Warsaw. The main goal of the project, designed for the years 2000-2005, is a gradual increase in the number of enterprises implementing health promotion programs aimed at supporting their employees to quit or reduce smoking. The National Center for Workplace Health Promotion and the National Network of Workplace Health Promotion Centers work together to convince employers that the implementation of anti-tobacco policy in their enterprises is cost-effective and helps to achieve the main goals of the enterprise. They also instruct occupational medicine specialists how to support enterprises, which intend to work out and introduce anti-tobacco policy.
