Programs of smoking cessation in the workplace are a useful tool in the fight against smoking.
Objective:

Results:
66 workers attended, 33 participated in the consultations. The mean age was 49.75 ± 8.5 years, 47 (71.2%) women and 19 (28.8%) men. The degree of dependence was moderate-high, with an average of 5.24 ± 1.85 points and a high motivation of 54%, with a mean of 6.7 ± 1.64.
