The consequences of involuntary smoking are well documented. We conducted a survey among all employees of the University Hospital, Zurich, to assess their smoking habits and feelings about restrictions or a ban on smoking. In March 1995, a questionnaire was mailed to all 5230 hospital employees, 2620 (50.1%) completed forms were sent back. 76% of all staff are confronted with cigarette smoke during their worktime. 83% of these employees are distressed by tobacco smoke, and 43% feel that involuntary smoking affects their health. 19% of all employees are smokers. 19% of these are distressed by smokers at work themselves, whereas 13% feel that they are discriminated against by non-smokers. Restriction to designated smoking rooms (68%) or a ban on smoking (27%) would be supported by 95% of all employees. Even 89% of the smokers support smoking restrictions. These results show that there is a considerable demand for a smoke-free working environment among university hospital staff.
非自愿吸烟的后果已有充分记录。我们对苏黎世大学医院的所有员工进行了一项调查，以评估他们的吸烟习惯以及对限制吸烟或禁烟的看法。1995年3月，向所有5230名医院员工邮寄了一份问卷，共收回2620份（50.1%）填好的表格。76%的员工在工作时间会接触到香烟烟雾。这些员工中有83%受到烟草烟雾的困扰，43%认为非自愿吸烟会影响他们的健康。所有员工中有19%是吸烟者。其中19%的人自己在工作时会受到吸烟者的困扰，而13%的人觉得自己受到了非吸烟者的歧视。95%的员工支持限制在指定吸烟室吸烟（68%）或禁烟（27%）。甚至89%的吸烟者也支持吸烟限制。这些结果表明，大学医院员工对无烟工作环境有相当大的需求。
