Typical provisions of these laws include: (1) smoking prohibitions in certain areas, often in public buildings, schools, food service establishments and workplaces; (2) designation of no-smoking areas; (3) requirement that employers establish and implement a written smoking policy; (4) display of no-smoking signs, typically warning of health dangers and specifying consequences for failure to adhere to requirements; (5) ability to bring civil action against responsible party to enforce provisions of the indoor smoking law, with recovery of wages, benefits, court costs and attorney's fees possible; and (6) penalties - violations are often infractions or misdemeanors with fines specified.
