Living tobacco free for PEBB

Why promote living tobacco free?

There is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke, so going smoke-free at your worksite can decrease health risks for your whole staff. Living tobacco free helps you breathe easier, feel better, and have more energy to do what you enjoy.

You can also save money. As a PEBB member, you save both the money you would use to buy tobacco and the $25 monthly tobacco use premium surcharge.
