[Nonsmoking on workingplace--an inquiry of smokers and nonsmokers in the traffic service (author's transl)]. 1979

F Batsch, and G Müller

3000 workers of different age and vocational groups in the plants and institutions of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (German Railways) were interviewed concerning their attitudes to smoking. The results of this inquiry are summarized in a table and evaluated. It is concluded that in general smokers are not against sensible measures for reducing smoking in public life. As a result a new programme of measures for reducing smoking in the sector of traffic is presented.
