Non-smokers at U.K. company rewarded 4 extra vacation days a year

dated Jan. 2 that they were “proud to incentivize” their staff to quit smoking and to “create a healthy workplace” within their offices.

Bryden said he was inspired by an article he saw last year about a Japanese firm that was considering giving non-smoking employees up to six extra days of holiday a year, and wanted to bring that idea to his company. “I noticed some of our non-smoking guys were sitting there working without taking any breaks, and some of our smokers having two, three, four, five cigarettes a day,” Bryden said. “Why not reward the healthier behaviour?”

“It’s gone down fantastically within my company, to the extent that people are asking me to help them quit [smoking],” he said.

Couldn’t happen in Canada, we’d have the discrimination brigade hauling them to court before you had 1 extra day off.

Makes sense. A worker taking one (1) 10 minute cigarette break per day adds up to a total of almost 42 hours over a year, based on a 8 hour day, 5 day week, 50 week per year work schedule.

Yay! Let’s celebrate health! smokefree

I like this idea. Kind of makes up for all the extra breaks smokers take. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I once worked in a job where the smokers (most staff) were outside at least every hr to smoke. A non-smoking co-worker decided that we were going start taking 'smoking breaks' to even things out a little. Seems enforcing break times would be more effective.

Nicotine addition

Yay! Discrimination is legal again!

I think that is great, but, of course, the argument starts about the morbidly obese, skydivers, travelling to risky locals etc.

CTV: 'Student who feared for life in speeding Uber [***is***] furious company first offered her $5 voucher' You're inducing dyslexia in people who otherwise don't have it. He still knows where she lives. I’m hearing a lot of reports like this about Uber. They don’t seem to address problems adequately and I’m thinking it’s not the best option for young women. Gotta have someone scared to death to make it relevant - if it was mom wouldn’t be hearing about it
