Since the law went into effect Jan. 1, 2002, it has extended protection from second-hand smoke to an additional 500,000 people throughout the state who were not already covered by local or voluntary policies banning smoking indoors. O re g o n ’s S m o k e fre e Workplace law requires alm ost all em ployers to ensure their workplaces are smoke free and display “No Sm oking” signs. E xceptions include bars and taverns, bingo parlors, tobacco stores, bowling alleys and hotel and motel rooms designated as smoking rooms. Smokefree workplaces m ake good business sense: 79 percent o f O regonians d o n ’t smoke. -89 percent o f adults said they w ould go out to bars as frequently or more frequently if smoking were banned in bars. (1997 Supplemental Survey) -T o b a c c o c o s ts Oregonians $1.8 billion each year in health care costs and loss o f productivity due to disease and e a rly d e a th from sm o k in g . Second-hand sm oke kills an estim ated 800 O regonians per year.

(Ryan) J u d g in g by o f f ic ia l c o m p la in ts to th e s ta te , compliance to the new law' is very high. According to Ken McGee, to b a c c o p r e v e n tio n a n d education manager in the Oregon Department o f Human Services (D H S ), th e n u m b e r o f “actionable" com plaints is low. Actionable complaints are those that require DHS official follow up (o u t o f 1 0 0 ,0 0 0 p lu s w orkplaces, there have been only 128 such complaints). E m p lo y e e s a n d th e public may confidentially report violations o f the law by calling a toll-free num ber: (866) 621 - 6107. I will be happy to answer questions about the law. Phone me at 676-5421, 481-2112 or 922-4103. Currently a tobacco and alcohol use su rv ey is b ein g d istrib u te d in a re a s a ro u n d H eppner (and other areas in M orrow County). The survey concerns how m uch people in Morrow County believ e students use tobacco and alcohol. Sample q u e s tio n s in c lu d e : " W h a t percentage o f teens in Heppner do you believe have sm oked cigarettes in the past year?” and “W hat percentage o f teens in H eppner do you believe have used alcohol during the past y e a r ? ” . T h e s u rv e y s are anonymous/confidential and the results will be com pared with •»nor surveys.
