SMOKE-FREE UNIVERSITY INITIATIVE

Toolkit, signs and maps help answer questions about the move to a smoke-free university

All buildings, facilities, grounds and university-owned vehicles are smoke free, and some are asking what to do when they encounter someone who is not adhering to the new policy. Smokers also want to know where they can go to light up without violating the new rules.

University Human Resources and the MHealthy team have created a Supervisors' Toolkit to answer the question of what to do when someone is smoking on campus. The resource, posted on the smoke-free website, smokefree.umich.edu, offers advice to those who manage staff, and to employees who may witness peers, students or visitors not adhering to the ban. Read the full story in the University Record.
