Smoking Cessation
WellbeingSport in association with QUIT can provide national smoking cessation programmes for your company.
Our programmes can be purchased on a per-smoker basis. Our counsellors call smokers once a week to provide support and advice. 7 days a week service.
What is it?
In addition to being the biggest killer in the UK, smokers have a high impact on business;
Money - Individual smokers cost anything between £1,664 and £7,774* each year
Morale – effects of fag breaks on non-smokers morale
Productivity – lost through breaks and ill health
Health/absenteeism – smokers more likely to get sick
Corporate Social Responsibility – your people are your biggest asset
Public image/Brand equity – smokers outside shops/offices/factories
Our evidence shows that our service support makes the attempt up to five times more likely to succeed.
By being able to support single smokers we can maximise the chances of helping individuals that would otherwise not receive pro-active assistance. The success of an individual has often lead previously hard to reach peers to commit to a QUIT attempt also.
