A
Breathe Easy Zone is an area 20-50 feet from the entrance of a
building designated
as no smoking. Designated smoking areas will be established in
the vicinity of the building but outside of the Breathe Easy Zone.
Why?
Maintaining a healthy work and learning environment
has long been a priority at FSU, beginning in 1992 when all indoor
smoking was banned and continuing in 2005 with the adoption of Healthy
Campus 2010.
Many campus employees and students have health
problems and being exposed to second-hand smoke is very dangerous
for them. It is well-documented that exposure to secondhand smoke
increases a persons chance of developing health problems even if
they’ve never smoked.
