Apparently Weyco is not alone in banning employees from smoking, not just at work, but at all.[1] Larry Elder also moves towards the humorous in comparing some of the statistics about smokers to some of those about democrats. The one example that struck me was the banning of smokers, not because of the health risks and related expenses to the employer, but because of the image that smokers have. Wow!, and here I thought that Weyco was extreme!
