Debate: Should smoking be banned in the workplace?

Article Abstract:

Kate Lloyd, a public health nurse, and Christine Hogg, a senior lecturer in mental health nursing, debate on the topic, whether smoking be banned in the workplace or not. While Lloyd says the ban should include all enclosed public places, Hogg argues that people have right to do what they want with their own bodies and that people make own choices and endorses the concept of having smoking rooms.
