Little research has examined issues surrounding employee smoking outside smoke-free workplaces. The study's aims were to: 1) document the proportion of NSW indoor employees covered by total workplace smoking bans; 2) examine community perceptions of employee smoking during working hours; 3) identify the characteristics of having a supportive attitude toward tobacco control in the workplace; and 4) describe relationships between smoking relapse and workplace-related smoking.
Two cross-sectional, computer-assisted telephone interview surveys of randomly selected adults were conducted. Consent rates were 49.1% in 2004 and 45.8% in 2006, with sample sizes of 1,158 and 2,393 respectively.
Total workplace bans were reported by 92.9% of indoor employees. Community attitudes to smoking in working hours were highly negative: 77.7% agreed smoking breaks waste too much time and 85.1% opposed smoking near workplace doorways. Being female, born in Australia and a non-smoker were associated with more negative attitudes. A higher proportion of smokers (78.3%) perceived smoking was more common outside their place of work or study than at five other locations: rail/bus stop (60.2%), friends' houses (59.3%), own street (35.2%), parks (34.3%), and outside school (22.6%). Of smokers making a quit attempt in the past year, 42.1% relapsed at home, 22.1% at licensed premises and 18.7% at work.
Findings emphasise the low support for smoking during or near work. Smoking outside workplaces is highly visible. Data on relapse suggest a modest relationship with workplace-related smoking.
很少有研究探讨员工在无烟工作场所外吸烟的问题。本研究的目的是：1）记录新南威尔士州全面禁烟工作场所涵盖的室内员工比例；2）研究社区对员工工作时间吸烟的看法；3）确定对工作场所烟草控制持支持态度的特征；4）描述吸烟复发与工作场所相关吸烟之间的关系。
对随机选择的成年人进行了两次横断面、计算机辅助电话访谈调查。2004 年和 2006 年的同意率分别为 49.1%和 45.8%，样本量分别为 1158 人和 2393 人。
92.9%的室内员工报告了全面禁烟工作场所。社区对工作时间吸烟的态度非常消极：77.7%的人认为吸烟休息浪费太多时间，85.1%的人反对在工作场所门口附近吸烟。女性、澳大利亚出生和不吸烟者的态度更为消极。更多的吸烟者（78.3%）认为他们工作或学习场所外的吸烟比其他五个地方更为常见：火车站/汽车站（60.2%）、朋友家（59.3%）、自家街道（35.2%）、公园（34.3%）和学校外（22.6%）。在过去一年尝试戒烟的吸烟者中，42.1%在家中复吸，22.1%在持牌场所复吸，18.7%在工作场所复吸。
研究结果强调了工作期间或附近吸烟的低支持率。工作场所外吸烟现象明显。有关复发的数据表明，与工作场所相关的吸烟有一定关系。
