Announce bad news to employees - 4

Dear Felix

As you may know, a new state law taking effect January 1 requires that employers provide a smoke-free workplace for their employees. In compliance with this law, after the first of the year smoking will be prohibited at Chris Industries except during break time in designated smoking areas. We are sorry for the inconvenience this causes our employees who smoke, but we believe this will promote a cleaner and healthier working environment for everyone. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as this new policy is implemented.

Regards
Lydia
