What about me?

“ What if I smoke and it helps me cope with 

stressful work situations?”

Facts

• It’s part of our job to model appropriate coping skills in our work environment and using tobacco is not a healthy coping skill.

• Mental health improves after quitting smoking  and anxiety, depression, and stress significantly  decrease in those who stop using tobacco.

What about my organization? 

“ Will we be the first organization to talk about tobacco treatment?”
