Smoke-Free Air Act Study Shows No Impact on Employment in Hospitality Industry
The Louisiana Campaign for Tobacco-Free Living (TFL) recently presented significant research findings concluding that the Louisiana Smoke-Free Air Act (Act 815) had no impact on employment rates in the state’s hospitality industry.Employment data used in the analysis were collected from the Louisiana Department of Labor (LADOL) in two industry categories – (1) accommodation and (2) food service and drinking places – between January 1, 2002 and June 30, 2011.  The LADOL publishes monthly data of employment figures based on quarterly tax returns from all employers covered by unemployment insurance.  Results from the statistical analysis demonstrate that the impact of the Smoke-Free Air Act on accommodation, food service, and drinking places employment was not statistically significant.  The Smoke-Free Air Act did not decrease employment in the hospitality industry.  The average employment in accommodation, food service, and drinking places was approximately 160,000 per month across the study period – unaffected by the 2007 law.
