It is unknown how many smokers we have. Therefore, we are unable to accurately determine the cost associated with presenteeism, sick days, health care costs, etc to PCS.
Through state and US data, we know the following: Smokers cost $1,700 a year in extra medical bills, according to the National Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention. Added together with absenteeism and regular smoke breaks, and the annual cost jumps to $3,400 per worker.
An estimated 46 million people, or 20.6% of all adults (aged 18 years and older), in the United States smoke cigarettes.
Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States, accounting for approximately 443,000 deaths, or 1 of every 5 deaths, in the United States each year.
The state of Florida spends on smoking cessation programs yields $1.90 to $5.75 in economic gains for Florida employers, insurers and government.
