What is GCC doing about smoke drifting in through windows form outdoor areas etc?
As a general principle, where this problem exists the local manager will have to determine a suitable practice that will overcome the problem. Smoking shelters are an option. Specific guidance is available but shelters themselves must not be ‘enclosed’ or ‘substantially enclosed’ shelters. Smoke drifting in through windows is certainly an issue at some locations such as the Shire Hall campus. In this specific case, the final details have yet to be established but current thinking is that a smoking shelter will be provided in one place where smoke will not enter buildings and this will be the only place on the campus where smoking is permitted. This information will be updated and communicated as soon as possible.
