LST Smoking Cessation Program in Workplace

 

Program Background

In recent years, corporates in Hong Kong begin to have more concerned with the occupational safety and health and corporate social responsibility (CSR). In this regard, sponsored by the Department of Health, The Lok Sin Tong Benevolent Society, Kowloon, has launched the program named “Smoking Cessation Program in Workplace” (SCPW) since 2013.

The program aims at promoting smoke-free workplace and provide outreach smoking cessation service for working adults. Our cross-professional team assists the participating corporates in setting up and implementing internal smoke-free policies, and designing and developing sustainable employee health programs. To encourage corporates’ social participation in Tobacco Control affairs, SCPW also assists the participating corporates in organizing volunteer services and CSR campaigns.
