Smoking

In keeping with Spelman's intent to provide a safe and healthful work environment, smoking in the workplace is prohibited. All buildings and entrances/exits to buildings are smoke free. In situations where the preferences of smokers and nonsmokers are in direct conflict, the preferences of nonsmokers will prevail. Smokers will not be given additional smoking breaks.

This policy applies equally to all employees, customers, and visitors. All employees are charged with enforcing this policy. Violators should be asked to extinguish their smoke and if they refuse it should be reported to their supervisor or the Office of Public Safety.
