Description

This Napo film is about issues related to tobacco smoke in workplaces. Exposure to tobacco smoke is bad for both smokers’ and non-smokers’ health. It can cause serious problems such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. It can cause death due to cancer, coronary heart disease or stroke. Yet, thousands of workers are still exposed to tobacco smoke in their workplaces. In this short film, Napo makes his own unique contribution to the cause of smoke-free workplaces.
