The Chungcheongnam-do Health Center in South Korea has implemented a full ban on smoking in public places this year and conducted joint inspections from August 26 to October.
The joint law enforcement team for the smoking ban in public facilities in Tianan City consists of 28 members, including the Southeast Police Station, the Northwest Environmental and Sanitation Department, the Youth Harmful Environment Monitoring Group, the Korean Food Service Industry Association (Tianan Branch), and the Korean Internet Computer Culture Association.
During the joint patrol, the law enforcement team will concentrate on guiding and inspecting public facilities such as computer rooms, daycare centers, urban parks, and bus stops during daytime, nighttime, and holidays. They will carry out joint rectification on 22,579 national designated non-smoking areas.
The inspection covers smoking in non-smoking areas (including electronic cigarettes), compliance with non-smoking area regulations (such as posting non-smoking signs and installation standards for smoking rooms), and compliance with standards for cigarette vending machines. Information on imposing smoking fines will be provided.
The head of the Tian'an Health Bureau stated, "Through guidance and inspections of non-smoking areas, we aim to create a pleasant community environment free from secondhand smoke in order to prevent smoking-related illnesses for the citizens of Tian'an. We are ensuring that more citizens can live safely and comfortably, as well as utilize public facilities with peace of mind.
