Tobacco Cessation

Smoking is an addictive, chronic disease. More than 70 percent of current smokers say they want to quit, according to the Centers for Disease Control. The costs to businesses are significant, from increased medical costs to lost productivity due to smoking breaks and health issues. Quitting tobacco is difficult for everyone, but people who have a plan and get support are more likely succeed.

Ceridian Tobacco Cessation offers employees a personal health coach to support them every step of the way while developing a personal plan for success - a plan that will give them the confidence to quit for good.

In fact, Ceridian Tobacco Cessation has achieved quit rates almost twice that of industry standards. On average, 31 percent of participants are tobacco free following the 12-month program. We achieve this by offering flexible options that match the member's health status, self-confidence, readiness, and learning style.
