Health and Safety Law 2024 (October 2024)
The ACOP to the Workplaces Regulations advises that where smoking in any area of the workplace or any rest area is not prohibited by law, for example, some care homes, non-smokers should be protected from experiencing discomfort from tobacco smoke. Staff who provide care or other services in residential rooms where the users are permitted to smoke must be provided with a separate, smoke-free rest room or rest area.
