The Cleveland Institute of Art is designated a smoke-free workplace. To ensure full compliance with Ohio’s Smoke Free Workplace Act and in the interest of promoting good health, comfort, and safety of our students, employees, and campus visitors, smoking is prohibited on all College property except for designated outdoor areas.

Specifically, the Cleveland Institute of Art:

• Prohibits smoking in its facilities and areas surrounding entrances and adjacent to buildings at any time;
• Posts “No Smoking” signs that are readable by a person of normal vision and include the telephone number of the Ohio Department of Health, at every entrance;
• Ensures that secondhand smoke does not filter into any enclosed space of the College by means of a window, door, or ventilation system; and
• Prohibits retaliation against anyone who reports violations to the Department of Health.

This prohibition includes College-owned vehicles being driven or parked on College property.
