Passive Smoking is Workplace Killer
Pressure mounted on Britain on Monday to take action on(1)smoking with new research showing second-hand smoke(2)about one worker each week in the hospitality industry.
Professor Konrad Jamrozik, of Imperial College in London, told a conference on environmental tobacco that second-hand(3)kills 49 employees in pubs, bars, restaurants and hotels each year and contributes to 700 deaths from lung cancer, heart(4)and stroke across the total national work force.
"Exposure in the hospitality(5)at work outweighs the consequences of exposure of living(6)a smoker for those staff," Jamrozik said in an interview.
Other(7)have measured the levels of exposure to passive smoking but Jamrozik calculated how it would translate into avoidable deaths.
His findings are(8)on the number of people working in the hospitality industry in Britain. Their exposure to second-hand smoke and their(9)of dying from it.
Jamrozik said to me findings would apply to(10)countries in Europe because, to a greater or(11)extent, levels of smoking in the community are similar.
Professor Carol Black, president of the Royal College of Physicians, who sponsored the meeting, said the research is proof of the need for a ban on smoking in(12)places.
"Environmental tobacco smoke in pubs, bars, restaurants and other public places is(13) damaging to the health of employees as well as the general public," she said in a statement.
"Making these places smoke-flee not only protects vulnerable staff and the public. It will(14)help over 300,000 people in Britain to stop smoking completely," she added.
Ireland recently became the first country to introduce a national ban on smoking in public(15). New York and parts of Australia have taken similar measures.
