The effects of smoking and second hand smoke have been proven to be hazardous to your health.
The policy regarding non-smoking is clear:
THERE IS TO BE NO SMOKING IN MACHINERY, PICKUPS, OFFICES, LUNCHROOMS, ETC.
These regulations are put forward by Federal and Provincial laws. The employer has a responsibility to provide a safe workplace, therefore, if machinery or lunchrooms, offices, etc. are contaminated with residual smoke, butts, ashes, the area or machinery can be considered a health hazard.
Brothers and sisters, please be aware of this policy and voluntarily be considerate towards this health hazard. The alternative is discipline and/or firing.
In solidarity
