The Employment Disadvantage of Being a Smoker.
Malouff, John; Schutte, Nicola S.
Journal of Drug Education, v20 n4 p329-36 1990
Examined effects of being a smoker on employment prospects in three studies using college students (or their acquaintances) as subjects (n=122). Results implied smokers may reduce their employment handicap by directly eliminating the basis for the preference, such as by not volunteering information about their status as a smoker or by promising not to smoke at work.
