　　　Passive Smoking Is

　　Workplace Killer

　　Pressure mounted on Britain on Monday to take action on passive smoking with new research showing second-hand smoke kills about one worker each week in the hospitality industry.

　　Professor Konrad Jamrozik, of Imperial College in London. Told a conference on environmental tobacco that second-hand smoking kills 49 employees in pubs. Restaurants and hotels each year and contributes to 700 deaths from lung cancer, heart disease and stroke across the total national work force.

　　"Exposure in the hospitality industry at work outweighs the consequences of exposure of living with a smoker for those staff," Jamrozik said in an interview.

　　Other researchers have measured the levels of exposure to passive smoking but Jamrozik calculated how it would translate into avoidable deaths.

　　His findings are based on the number of people working in the hospitality industry in Britain, their exposure to secondhand smoke and their suffering of dying form it.

　　Jamrozik said the findings would apply to most countries in Europe because, to a greater or lesser extent, levels of smoking in the community are similar.

　　Professor Carol Black, president of the Royal College of Physicians. Which sponsored the meeting, said the research is proof of the need for a ban on smoking in public places.

　　"Environmental tobacco smoke in pubs, bars, restaurants and other public places is seriously damaging to the health of employees as wells as the general public," she said in a statement.

　　"Making these places smoke-free not only protects vulnerable staff and the public, it will also help over 300,000 people in Britain to stop smoking completely." she added.

　　Ireland recently became the first country to introduce a national ban on smoking in public places. New York and parts of Australia have taken similar measures.

　　被動(dòng)吸煙是工作

　　場(chǎng)所的殺手

　　當(dāng)新的研究表明在服務(wù)行業(yè)二手煙每星期導(dǎo)致一個(gè)工人死亡后，英國(guó)在星期一就受到新被動(dòng)吸煙采取行動(dòng)的強(qiáng)大壓力。

　　倫敦皇家學(xué)院的康拉德?吉姆羅茲克教授在環(huán)境煙草大會(huì)上說(shuō)，在酒館、酒吧、飯店和旅館，二手煙每年殺死49個(gè)工作人員，使全國(guó)的工作人員中的700人因?yàn)榉伟?、心臟病以及中風(fēng)而死亡。

　　吉姆羅茲克在一次訪談中說(shuō)：“對(duì)員工來(lái)說(shuō)在服務(wù)行業(yè)工作比和吸煙者一起生活產(chǎn)生的后果更嚴(yán)重?！?/P>

　　其他的研究者衡量受到被動(dòng)吸煙威脅的程度，而吉姆羅茲克計(jì)算這將如何轉(zhuǎn)化成可以避免的死亡。

　　他的發(fā)現(xiàn)基于英國(guó)服務(wù)行業(yè)的工作人數(shù)，他們受到了二手煙的危害并且有可能因此而死亡。

　　吉姆羅茲克說(shuō)這些發(fā)現(xiàn)應(yīng)該用于歐洲大部分國(guó)家，因?yàn)樵谶@些社會(huì)中吸煙的程度或多或少有相似性。

　　主辦這個(gè)會(huì)議的皇家醫(yī)學(xué)院院長(zhǎng)卡羅?布萊克教授說(shuō)，這個(gè)研究證明需要禁止在公共場(chǎng)所吸煙。

　　她在一次講話中說(shuō)：“酒館、酒吧、飯店和其他公共場(chǎng)所的環(huán)境煙草正在嚴(yán)重地?fù)p害著工作人員和大眾的身體健康。”

　　她又補(bǔ)充說(shuō)：“使這些場(chǎng)所禁煙不僅能夠保護(hù)易受傷害的工作人員和公眾，還可以幫助英國(guó)30萬(wàn)人完全戒煙?！?/P>

　　愛爾蘭最近成為第一個(gè)實(shí)行全國(guó)公共場(chǎng)所禁煙的國(guó)家。紐約和澳大利亞的某些地區(qū)也實(shí)施了相似的政策。
