Smoke-free laws

Smoke-free laws are regulations that prohibit smoking in certain indoor spaces, such as workplaces, restaurants, and public places. These laws protect nonsmokers from secondhand smoke, which can harm their health, and create cleaner, more comfortable environments. They often require designated smoking areas outside or restrict smoking altogether in specific areas. By reducing exposure to tobacco smoke, these laws also encourage quitting and help prevent smoking-related health issues. Overall, smoke-free laws promote public health by making shared spaces safer and more enjoyable for everyone.
