The reason is - That CURRENT employees are allowed to smoke but NEW employees can't
WOW!! Are you kidding me! That's one hell of a privilege. Current employees get basically a 10 million dollar payout - THEY DON"T HAVE TO QUIT!
That's like saying - CURRENT employees DON'T have to pay TAXES but NEW employees Do!
That's like saying - CURRENT nursing interns don't require to have a license to be RNs but NEW nurses have to have RN licenses.
This policy will likely to incite a CIVIL WAR between current employees and new employees.
I got to tell you, if my coworker CAN smoke But I am NOT allowed to smoke, I would be screaming until the beams at city hall fell to be allowed to smoke. (Just assuming I was a smoker.)
In addition, this new policy is exceptionally brutal as it does not allow for smoking OF ANY KIND or OF ANY AMOUNT.
This policy is also HIGHLY INTRUSIVE to a person's right to privacy.
Consider this.
Suppose a wife and husband both smoke. The husband currently works at the Villages Regional Hospital. The wife wishes to get a job at the Villages Regional Hospital. The Wife CAN'T smoke but the husband can.
I am all for a hiring band on smokers but it has to apply to CURRENT employees as well.
