Quit smoking, for the good of the company - But how to do it?

S = Set a quit date.

T = Tell family, friends, and co-workers that you plan to quit.

A = Anticipate and plan for the challenges you'll face while quitting.

R = Remove cigarettes and other tobacco products from your home, car, and work.

T = Talk to your doctor about getting help to quit.

chewing gums can take out the stress to an extent.

I'm taking another tack. I'm a smoker myself (as of now) and I work as hard as a non-smoker and - in fact - harder than many non-smokers. 

I'm sure that everyone knows that, while working, a person needs a 10-minute break every 2 hours. It is essential to take such breaks to keep stress and fatigue at manageable levels. If a company wants to reduce the loss of time related to breaks, the managers of the company should be strict and ensure that employees come back from breaks on time - whether they are smoking breaks or non-smoking breaks. 

As for pollution, just take a look at a single bus or auto and check how much it is polluting the environment. The suspended particulate matter (including carbon and dust particles) in the air in Indian cities and towns is the equivalent of 25 cigarettes a day. Most non-smokers do not realize that they are smoking this much.

Unfortunately, very few non-smokers are interested in such statistics. They just look at smokers and want to stop them. Non-smokers, it would be a much better use of your spare time if you channeled all this effort towards improving the environment and pressurizing the government to pull all polluting vehicles off the road - specifically, trucks, buses, and autos. Don't allow people to use cars in the city. Force people to use either a bus, a local train, or a two-wheeler. 

Just think about your parents, life, family, spouse, kids, health and quit in one go. there is no plan or alternatives required.

full stop.

I n a worldwide survey it was found that people who have low level of self confidence smoke.people who are self confident  do not smoke.Smokers have to consider this and do all that is required to increase their confidence levels.

Don't allow any body to smoke in company and don't allow him to go out side for that. Also start fine system if any one caught doing that. Things will improve gradually.

A person generally tends to smoke only when he feels stressed or boredome. So the alternative for such aperson is to keep himself engaged in work of his interest. Company should also help him in this regard.
