Can I smoke an e-cigarette in the office?

In the UK, it is illegal to smoke in an enclosed public area or workplace. Because of this employers, usually, only allow their staff to smoke on their premises in a designated smoking area which is outside. To abide by the smoking laws businesses are required to:

• Display no smoking signs.
• Enforce that people don’t smoke in shared work vehicles or enclosed work spaces.
• Ensure smokers go outside, a staff smoking room is no longer allowed.

The consequences for not adhering to the law can incur penalties and fines.
