So I work for Magna International as a process technician and I've been here for around 5 years. Every year they start a smoking cessation program around February time to which many employees have signed up for.... year after year. Some people have been signing up for the past 3-4 years with no success in actually quitting. They would stop for a few months and start smoking again. In the last year I've actually introduced a few of my co-workers to vaping and I've actually gotten more people to quit with just E-cigarettes than all the hypnotherapy, guidance counselling etc that the program had success on this year. Not to say that they won't go back to smoking all the same, but they've lasted longer with vaping than they did with the program.
My HR manager approached me a few days ago, after hearing about how I helped people, and asked me about the E-Cigarettes and dangers behind them and if its habit forming. I told him about the health benefits I personally received such as energy levels, ability to breathe and the fact that I no longer smell like cigarettes. I also informed him that I'm not a doctor nor a scientist and that any long term effects of vaping are still yet to be discovered. Today my HR told me that they're going to see if they can work e-cigarettes into the program next year as an aide to help quitting cigarettes. Don't know if it will, but heres hoping!
