Smoking bans are legislated and enforced by state and local government. Since there is no universal federal law on no smoking, following the right protocol can become very confusing.  Smoking regulations vary state by state. Some states have comprehensive no-smoking laws already on the books, while some states are still catching up.  As of July 2010, 29 states and Washington D.C. have passed laws that prohibit smoking in almost all public places and workplaces which also include restaurants and bars.

Some states have specific no-smoking signs that are required by state law. Size, color, material and wording are not consistent from state to state.  Penalties, violations and tickets are common to enforce smoke-free bans.  Be confident you are complying with your specific state’s laws and don’t have to worry about fines.  Seton offers Smoke – Free Signs available for your state and come in several sizes and styles to meet the needs of your state’s regulations.
