L A Jason, S Jayaraj, C C Blitz, M H Michaels and L E Klett

DePaul University, Chicago, IL 60614-3298.

We evaluated a worksite smoking cessation program that employed multicomponents including support groups, incentives, and competition. The combination of incentives and other components increased participation rates to over 80%. Forty-two percent of smokers were abstinent at six months, compared to 13 percent of a control group (difference 29 percent, 95% CI 9, 49).
