Philadelphia passed the Clean Indoor Air Worker Protection Law in 2006. This law protects Philadelphians from secondhand smoke and aerosols from vaping in most:
- Restaurants.
- Bars.
- Workplaces.
Smoke-free policies have since expanded to include:
- Public and private housing.
- Recreation centers and parks.
- Colleges and universities.
- Behavioral health treatment settings.
Requirements
In areas designated as smoke-free, it is illegal to smoke tobacco or use electronic smoking devices that deliver nicotine or other substances via vapor inhalation, including:
- E-cigarettes.
- E-cigars.
- E-pipes.
- E-hookah.
