This study assessed the implementation of tobacco industry strategies to prevent a workplace smoking regulation.
Tobacco industry internal documents were identified; hearing transcripts for the affiliations, arguments, and positions regarding the regulation of testifiers were coded; and media coverage was analyzed.
Tobacco industry strategies sought to increase business participation and economic discussions at public hearings and to promote unfavorable media coverage of the regulation. The percentage of business representatives opposing the regulation grew from 18% (5 to 28) to 57% (13 of 23) between the hearings. Economic arguments opposing the regulation rose from 25% (7 of 28) to 70% (16 of 23). Press coverage was neutral and did not increase during the period of the regulatory hearings.
The tobacco industry was successful in implementing 2 of its 3 strategies but was not able to prevent passage of the comprehensive workplace regulation.
本研究评估了烟草行业为阻止工作场所吸烟规定实施而采取的策略。
识别烟草行业内部文件;对关于证人对该规定的从属关系、论点和立场的听证会记录进行编码;并分析媒体报道。
烟草行业的策略旨在增加公众听证会上的企业参与度和经济讨论,并推动媒体对该规定进行负面报道。听证会期间,反对该规定的企业代表比例从18%(5人至28人)增至57%(23人中的13人)。反对该规定的经济论点从25%(28人中的7人)增至70%(23人中的16人)。媒体报道保持中立,在监管听证会期间没有增加。
烟草行业成功实施了其三项策略中的两项,但未能阻止全面工作场所规定的通过。
