Background: NIOSH has previously 

published two formal Current 

Intelligence Bulletins entirely devoted to 

the issue of tobacco use. The first—CIB 

31: Adverse Health Effects of Smoking 

and the Occupational Environment 

[DHEW (NIOSH) Publication Number 

79–122]—outlined several ways in 

which smoking interacts with other 

workplace exposures to increase risk of 

disease and injury among workers. That 

document recommended that smoking 

be curtailed in workplaces where those 

other hazards are present and that 

worker exposure to those other 

occupational hazards be controlled 

http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/1970/

79122_31.html. The second—CIB 54: 

Environmental Tobacco Smoke in the 

Workplace; Lung Cancer and other 

Health Effects [DHHS (NIOSH) 

Publication No. 91–108]—focused on 

secondhand smoke in the workplace as 

a cause of cancer and cardiovascular 

disease. That document recommended 

eliminating tobacco smoking in the 

workplace as the best preventive 

approach http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/

docs/91–108/. 

NIOSH has prepared a current draft 

CIB: Promoting Health and Preventing 

Disease and Injury through Workplace 

Tobacco Policies for anticipated 

dissemination during the 50th 

anniversary year of the Surgeon 

General’s first report on the health 

consequences of smoking published in 

1964. The draft CIB reflects a ‘‘strategy 

integrating occupational safety and 

health protection with health promotion 

to prevent worker injury and illness and 

to advance health and well-being’’ [see 

http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/TWH/

totalhealth.html], embodied by NIOSH 

in a recently launched Total Worker 

HealthTM (TWHTM) Program.
