Health Minister Marisol Touraine announced yesterday that e-cigarettes will soon be banned at work. This decision will apply in “a few weeks “, she said, without giving a date.
Employees had until then the right to vape in their workplaces except in the event of a ban for companies that so wished and that had stipulated it in their internal regulations.
This measure is part of the anti-tobacco plan, communicated last September by the government. Its purpose is to prohibit the use of electronic cigarettes in enclosed spaces at work. For the Minister of Health, " the priority is to prevent the gesture of smoking from being trivialized .
Smokers be warned!
