Enhance Your Workplace with Tamstar’s Alcor Smoking Shelter

As smoking bans apply to all enclosed or substantially enclosed workplaces, public transport, taxis, company vehicles, and public places. Ultimately, it is essential for businesses to provide a safe and compliant smoking area for their employees. Tamstar‘s Alcor 10-Person Smoking & Vaping Shelter offers a practical solution that respects both legal requirements and employee comfort.  

Understanding Smoking Bans and Exceptions

The smoking ban covers almost all indoor public and workspaces. Exceptions include private homes not used as workplaces, designated smoking rooms in care homes, hospices, hotel bedrooms, private vehicles, and adult prisons. Therefore, this ensures compliance is crucial for maintaining a healthy and legally compliant environment. Legal compliance also requires displaying no smoking signs at every entrance of the building. These signs must be at least 148x210mm with a no smoking symbol of at least 75mm in diameter. So, company vehicles should display the standard international no smoking symbol. While the law does not mandate providing a smoking shelter, it is highly recommended. A shelter like Tamstar’s Alcor can protect employees from the weather and keep the premises clean. This not only shows consideration for smoking staff but also helps maintain a tidy and professional environment.  

Planning Permission and Placement

Generally, full planning consent isn’t needed for installing a smoking shelter. However, it’s wise to submit outline plans to your local authority. The Alcor shelter should be positioned at least 1.5 meters away from buildings to ensure proper airflow and reduce wind effects. The Alcor shelter arrives flat packed with assembly instructions, typically requiring 4-6 hours to set up with two people. Ensuring your site has sufficient access for delivery is important. Including a cigarette bin near the shelter is recommended to manage waste and maintain cleanliness.
