加州1995年的无烟工作场所法案--第13号议会法案(AB 13)--于1998年扩展到酒吧。本文件审查了负责实施和执行法律的官员所面临的挑战。作为评估AB 13在酒吧中的一系列研究的一部分,研究人员对35个州、县和市政当局以及非政府机构的代表进行了保密的深入访谈。访谈记录,转录,编码和分析的主题和受访者类别。从抽样酒吧的结构化观察数据和对酒吧工作人员和顾客的采访提供了背景信息。分析表明存在以下挑战:(1)行政结构效率低下,(2)与用于执法的投诉驱动系统有关的问题,(3)执法资金不足,(4)执法的优先次序不高,以及(5)制裁处罚的威慑作用最小。调查结果表明,尽管州法律禁止在工作场所吸烟,但室内吸烟仍可能在一些酒吧继续。许多城市、州和国家可能正在考虑限制在包括酒吧在内的工作场所吸烟,我们的调查结果表明,在起草这些法律时,应考虑明确界定程序和执法标准,以及资金和实质性处罚。
California’s 1995 Smoke-Free Workplace Act—Assembly Bill 13 (AB 13)—was extended to bars in 1998. This paper examines the challenges faced by officials responsible for implementing and enforcing the law. As part of a series of studies evaluating AB 13 in bars, researchers conducted confidential in-depth interviews with 35 state, county and municipal authorities and representatives of non-governmental agencies. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, coded and analyzed by themes and respondent categories. Data from structured observations in sampled bars and interviews with bar staff and patrons offer contextual information. Analyses indicated the following challenges: 1) an ineffective administrative structure, 2) problems associated with the complaint-driven system used to enforce the law, 3) lack of funding for enforcement, 4) low prioritization of enforcement, and 5) the minimal deterrence effect of the sanctioning penalties. The findings indicate why indoor smoking may continue in some bars despite the state law prohibiting smoking in workplaces. Many municipalities, states and countries may be considering restricting smoking in workplaces including bars, and our findings show that clear delineation of procedures and enforcement criteria, as well as funding and substantive penalties, should be considered in drafting these laws.
