The question as to whether passive smoking at the workplace is injurious to health is dealt with. With the aid of the bibliographic standard literature on industrial, social and preventive medicine, all experimental investigations of this subject and published since 1970 were considered. The important results and findings are presented in tabulated surveys broken down by the substances contained in smoke. The present results of investigation are discussed with respect to a practical workplace model whose air-hygienic conditions are determined by legal prescriptions for workplaces. The measured concentrations of the particulate mass and of the most important individual constituents of smoke, carbon monoxide, nicotine and aldehyde make it highly unlikely that passive smoking at the workplace causes injury to health if the prevailing regulations governing the workplace are complied with. Particular attention has to be given to the occupational problems existing in night bars, restaurants and discothecs.
本文探讨了工作场所被动吸烟是否有害健康这一问题。借助工业、社会和预防医学方面的标准文献，研究了自1970年以来所有关于该主题的实验性调查。重要结果和发现以表格形式呈现，按烟雾中所含物质分类。结合一个实际工作场所模型讨论了当前的调查结果，该模型的空气卫生条件由工作场所的法律规定决定。如果遵守现行的工作场所规定，所测得的颗粒物质量以及烟雾中最重要的个别成分（一氧化碳、尼古丁和醛）的浓度表明，工作场所的被动吸烟极不可能对健康造成损害。尤其要关注夜间酒吧、餐馆和迪斯科舞厅中存在的职业问题。
