Clark quit smoking quite a few years ago, but he admits he used to smoke like a chimney. Therefore, he has always been interested in the topic of smoking in the workplace and how it is accepted. Well, a story in the Detroit News gave him his answer. According to the paper, a Michigan company fired four employees because they tested positive for tobacco after the company instituted a no-smoking policy. It’s legal in Michigan to fire employees on those grounds. But Clark thinks that is just wrong. About 80 percent of you agreed with him in a recent poll, which asked whether it was fair to fire existing employees because they smoke. He thinks it’s fine not to hire someone because he or she is a smoker. It adds huge health care costs. But doing what’s fair is also important.
