Research shows that the
majority of smokers at any one
time are interested in quitting.
Your employer will love it if you
decide to make another attempt.
Fifty-one percent of smokers in the
most recent national study tried
quitting in the past year; only 20%
succeeded—about one in five.
Here’s
the kicker: If you are a heavy smoker—officially, more than 20
cigarettes a day—you are almost twice as likely to be successful
if you decide to quit smoking! Go for it.
