    Abstract

    Does forcing workers to go outside to smoke reduce smoking? In March 2004, the Tobacco Smoking (Prohibition) Regulations 2003 were implemented in Ireland. The introduction of these regulations meant that Ireland became the first country in the world to introduce a nationwide workplace smoking ban. With a small number of exceptions, smoking was prohibited in all Irish indoor workplaces, with employers being fined for non-compliance. This research measured the effect of the ban on smoking.
