The proportion of daily smokers In 2000 the proportion of daily smokers was 27% among men between years and 20% among women. The current figures are among the lowest in Europe.

Smoke-free policy in Finland Smoke-free policy is based on legislation, and the fact that environmental tobacco is a real indoor health hazard. The right to breathe smoke-free air and to be protected from involuntary exposure to environmental tobacco smoke is the basic right of every citizen in Finland.

Smoke-free policy in Finland In 2000, environmental tobacco smoke was included in the legislation and in the national list of carcinogenic substances. Employers are required to protect employees from exposure to the carcinogenic effects of ETS as much as possible. Pregnant women may not be employed in work which involves exposure to ETS.
