reasons
1) YES! Who pays for the workers Health and Life Insurance? The Company.
2)
Depending where you are? And I agree with one above. In another co that I worked for the "smokers" were constantly taking breaks... so every hour or so they were outside contributing to thier addiction. the non smokers had to continue working. 3)It is perfectly legal and becoming an accepted way of doing business. Discrimination laws only protect against things that one basically has no choice over (race, creed, color, national origin). Smoking is a choice that actually impacts on an employer (more sick days used, higher health insurance costs, lower productivity). 4) It depends on the sort of product with which you're dealing and what sort of odor is clinging to you. It is legal not to hire you for that reason though. 5) It's legal and the new wave of a lot of companies. It costs more to insure a smoker -- they need more breaks -- have more sick days, etc. More and more companies are going to either not hiring smokers, or making smokers pay more to be covered by insurance. |
