Dear DSP,
I pity our 'GODS'-poor things have to 'lie low' on the walls to stop a habit that will send us faster to them-'Gods are stooping to conquer'. CCTVs, fines, sacking please but not Gods-A bank tried it out -worked for a week and after that they were spitting on the Dieties.
Yes large posters of oral cancer effects- displayed all over may reduce the chewers-but the hardcore will remain so.

Dear DSP,
U r most welcome. Im glad u liked my suggestions.
installing CCTVs and having security check ups are like using AK47 for some erring children.Look at the enormous costs and manpower that will wasted by an organization just to tackle a guka / pan problem where the culprit spenda only one rupee on his habit.
I agree with col.jude. Its not proper to make these people spit on gods 7 even if they do NOt spit on gods they will DO so elsewehere.
Solution is NOT to generate thsi spit.
To stop a habit is to break it.
I again reiterate , the problem CAN be solved mainly by changing the attitude of these workers. I hate the terminology Low Level even the so called high level people stoop to even much lower levels- that of spitting out of their BMWs' and Mercs' right on the Marine Drive.
Change the mindset and the problem will disapper without spending 10 paise.as mentioned by me earlier use positive distraction not the negative one.All the Best.

It is very perennial problem which we are facing in all public places there is no control but in the organization we can do it by following ways :-
- Intense publicity of consequences’ of using tobacco by posters lectures and audio visual demonstrations in workplace, canteen ,rest room ,community hall ,residential area, club and parking places .
- Display a hording / banner in prominent place in the main gate “tobacco strictly prohibited”
- Involves shop floor supervisors (including contractor) guards, security & safety staff to watch and educate the employees.
- Extensively circulate the message that nobody will have tobacco in any form in the premises it will be physically checked by security staff at the time of entry , if they found he will fined of Rs. 100/200/300 .
- The same amount pass on to person who had caught that user/carrier you may add same amount to make attractive the scheme.
- Be firm and fare, constitute a committee with the help of HODs to monitoring and implementing the scheme in their section and make them accountable.
- Keep close watch.

Hi friend:-
This might be little harsh way but it may work out. Here it goes:-
1) Introduce the policy of Code of Conduct highlighting " Spitting in the premises" being one of the major concern
2) Put posters in the bulidibng premises where ever possible (in the vicinity of the employees)
3) Introduce three methods of giving punishment:-
a) Fine the employee
b) Suspend him from the work
c) Terminate him.
Trust me if one the employee is not following and will be terminated on the grounds of indiscipline, this will bring huge impact on the employees.
Before taking into actions these plans also consult your company lawyer about the consequences. guess this will work out.

installing a spy camera will be ineffective even if inexpensive.
Beacuse this would require you to place some personnel to monitor the camera recordings 24x7. which may be practically cumbersome
however deducting one day salary as penalty, may act as a remedy to your sores.
