Our workplace rules for smokers. Does your office have similar? Are they extreme?

[Justa Lol]

In Denmark there are laws set in place that prohibit smoking in public areas like workplaces, school places, and other government and public facilities. You're not even allowed to smoke at train station platforms. Basically, workplaces here are forced to have some kind of smoking policy, that prevents workers to smoke inside or on the workplace property. During school breaks, you will see a lot of students smoking outside the school property, by public roads and so on, because they will be fined if they are found smoking on the school property...

I'm totally fine with smoking bans that prevent non-smokers being forced to inhale the cancerous fumes, as FunkyDexter put it... I'm not a smoker myself, but I think people should choose if they smoke or not, as long as it doesn't cause harm to others. I think smokers have a positive effect on the economy, and I guess we could thank them for the tax payments they provide.
