Business Environment awards staff £100 for quitting smoking

Serviced office provider Business Environment is offering employees a contribution of up to £100 per year to spend on stop-smoking aids such as nicotine substitutes and relevant books to help them give up.

And once they have gone for six months without a cigarette, staff will be rewarded with a cheque for £100 from their employer to celebrate their success.

Five co-workers are already pooling their efforts to kick the nicotine habit for good

David Saul, MD of Business Environment, added: "We launched the smoking support initiative in a bid to help our employees give up smoking and adopt healthier lifestyles.

"Everyone is aware of the risks associated with smoking but for some people it can be a hugely difficult addiction to overcome. So by offering some help and a little incentive, we're hoping we can make a difference to the lives of our staff who desperately want to quit."
