20 Nov Danish Decommissioning becomes a smoke-free workplace from January 1, 2024

Danish Decommissioning will implement a smoke-free workplace from January 1, 2024, at which point all smoking on the premises will no longer be permitted.

It will no longer be permitted to smoke on Danish Decommissioning's premises after the turn of the year, applying to both DD employees and external guests.

Furthermore, smoke-free working hours will be introduced, which also means that DD's employees are not permitted to smoke during working hours, whether e-cigarettes or conventional tobacco products.

The best possible work environment
Ole Kastbjerg Nielsen, Director at Danish Decommissioning, says about the decision:

“We aim to create the best possible work environment at Danish Decommissioning, including ensuring that employees can come to work without being exposed to harmful smoke, and therefore we have made an important decision for the benefit of all employees here with us.”

The decision was not made out of the blue but is the culmination of many years of increasingly restrictive smoking policies. DD's employees were informed of the decision on April 27, 2023, at which time all employees were simultaneously offered a free smoking cessation course.
