Not just homes - smoke-free prisons Sean Semple Associate Professor Institute for Social Marketing Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport University of Stirling sean.semple@stir.ac.uk

Tobacco in Prisons Study (TIPs) Air quality data collection All 15 prisons measured between 30th September and 22nd November Measurement duration mean was 5.9 days (7301-8704 mins) Total 128,431 minutes of data on PM2.5 concentrations (>2100 hours) Outdoor PM2.5 data from nearest local authority outdoor fixed site measurement station to provide adjustment for ambient air pollution Mobile/task-based measurements (~30 minutes) 86 in total (range 2-8) >40 hours of task-based data 12 prisons had complete contemporaneous data for Dylos (PM2.5) and airborne nicotine

Some comparative PM2.5 figures There is no UK or International Workplace Exposure Limit for SHS PM2.5 guidance from World Health Organisation (WHO) 25 mg/m3 averaged over 24h 10 mg/m3 averaged over a year Median from smoke-free homes in Scotland: 3 mg/m3 Median in smoking homes in Scotland: 31 mg/m3 Median in pre-ban Scottish bars :246 mg/m3 Median outdoor in Scotland: 9 mg/m3 Median Dylos 6-day across 5 prisons in E&W 36 (range 27-70) mg/m3 corrected for outdoor air median becomes 16 (range 13-62) mg/m3

PM2.5 time plots – HMP Grampian Clear diurnal pattern Modern prison ‘Median’ prison with values nearest the average for all 15 prisons

PM2.5 time plots – HMP Barlinnie Victorian prison Much higher concentrations extending through night - poorer ventilation

Static PM2.5 measurements WHO 24h guidance WHO annual guidance

Mobile PM2.5 data – example from HMP Barlinnie Using 12 prisons where contemporaneous data exist Indicates that PM is a very good proxy for SHS

Mobile PM2.5 data - example A typical cell in E hall - cell occupied by 1 smoking status prisoner. Monitor located on cell shelf. Cell door was old timber style which was closed and cell window was also shut. Observed prisoner smoking two roll up cigarettes, he advises he smokes c35 a day. Using 12 prisons where contemporaneous data exist Indicates that PM is a very good proxy for SHS

Mobile PM2.5 data - example E hall cell search- occupied by 2 smokers. Test was an unannounced cell search. Occupants stated they last smoked 30 mins before staff entered. Cell window was open, door was shut whilst prisoners were searched individually then door was wide open for duration of cell search. Using 12 prisons where contemporaneous data exist Indicates that PM is a very good proxy for SHS

Mobile PM2.5 data - example D hall -section D south Lower (high dependency unit) - Recreation Period. Situated in the main landing atrium area during a recreation period. It has capacity for 51 and there was 46 prisoners located in the unit at the time of testing, 14 were out on recreation in the atrium area and the remainder were locked in their cells, no one is allowed to smoke with their cell door open. Only 2 of the 46 prisoners are non-smokers. Using 12 prisons where contemporaneous data exist Indicates that PM is a very good proxy for SHS

Mobile PM2.5 data - example A hall – Daily cell security checks. Cell security checks are carried out daily by all Officers, they involve spending around 1-2 minutes checking the security and fabric of each cell individually, whilst the occupants are there or not. We checked 34 of cells in 30 minutes. Using 12 prisons where contemporaneous data exist Indicates that PM is a very good proxy for SHS

Not just prisons – homes are workplaces too… Domiciliary health and care workers (including Home Health Care Professionals or Community Staff) are one of the largest remaining occupational groups that continue to experience frequent and high concentrations of SHS as part of their work activity. There are over 600,000 workers employed in this sector in the UK, over 2 million in the USA and growing numbers globally carrying out nursing and care tasks that involve entering private residences where smoking is unrestricted by law. The workforce is predominately female and estimates suggest the number of workers employed in this sector are likely to increase as life expectancy rises and elderly people are cared for within their own home. Very little is known about the exposure of these workers to SHS
