R GREGLER EN VIRKSOMHEDSSAG
Article Abstract:
In a comment to Danish Minister of Health Carsten Koch's suggestion that all companies in Denmark should enforce a smoking policy as part of their image, LO and DA (unions in Denmark) are of the opinion that each company should decide for itself whether to introduce such a policy or not. Both LO and DA are sceptical towards what they call "American solutions" where policies are forced on employees.
